FAQs

An elbow chair, often referred to as a carver chair, is an armchair designed to sit at the head of a dining table or alongside matching side chairs. These chairs feature open armrests for comfort while maintaining proportions suitable for dining or desk use.

Traditional antique mahogany chairs feature dense hardwood frames joined with mortise and tenon joints, often complemented by hand-carved decorative splats. Upholstery usually consists of natural leather or woven fabrics secured with brass studwork over padded frames.

Authentic period chairs display rich wood grain with natural patination, subtle variations from hand-tooling, and period joinery techniques. Look for crisp carved details on splats or crest rails and traditional brass tacks along upholstery borders.

Pair these timber chairs with a minimalist modern desk or place them as accent seating in a contemporary hallway or study. The rich brown leather and sculpted silhouette provide depth and character when set against light, neutral walls.

Dust the wood regularly with a soft, dry cloth and apply beeswax polish periodically along the grain. Keep leather seats hydrated with a specialised leather conditioner to prevent drying, ensuring the piece remains away from direct heat sources.
