The Victorian spoon back armchair features an oval, concave backrest carved from timber that mimics the shape of a spoon, popular during the mid to late 19th century.

These chairs are typically constructed from dense hardwoods like walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, featuring traditional joinery, horsehair stuffing, and deep button tufting.

Authentic pieces often exhibit hand-carved wooden frames, traditional hand-tied coil springs, period-appropriate upholstery tacks, and wear patterns consistent with age on the wooden legs and brass castors.

Pairing a historic armchair with clean-lined contemporary furniture creates a curated, eclectic aesthetic that highlights the craftsmanship of the antique piece.

Keep wooden frames conditioned with appropriate wax, protect upholstered fabrics from direct sunlight to prevent fading, and clean gently with soft-bristled attachments.
