Wing armchairs originated in the late 17th century, designed primarily to protect sitters from drafts in poorly heated rooms by trapping heat around the head and torso.

Traditional frames were constructed from dense hardwoods like walnut, oak, or mahogany, featuring traditional joinery, horsehair stuffing, and heavy textile or leather upholstery.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved details, period-appropriate joinery such as mortise and tenon, hand-forged fixings, and natural wear patterns consistent with age on the timber and upholstery.

They make a statement paired with minimalist contemporary furnishings, acting as a historical anchor that introduces texture, pattern, and architectural form to a room.

Keep upholstered furniture away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent textile fading and timber drying, and use professional cleaning methods suitable for antique fabrics.
