FAQs

The Marlborough wing armchair is a traditional high-backed seating design originating in 18th-century England, characterised by protruding side wings and deep upholstered seating. Originally designed to protect sitters from draughts near open hearths, this silhouette became an enduring staple of Georgian formal interiors.

Traditional Georgian wing chairs feature solid hardwood frames, typically crafted from oak or beech using mortise and tenon joinery. Lower leg supports often feature carved mahogany or giltwood, while internal cushioning relies on horsehair stuffing, steel coil springs, and natural canvas or calico lining.

Authentic period wing chairs exhibit hand-carved wood joinery, slight asymmetry beneath upholstery layers, and corner blocks held by wooden pegs or historic hand-cut screws. Examining the frame underside reveals age-related patination, hand-tool marks, and original upholstery tacks.

A gilded wingback chair serves as a focal accent piece in a modern living room or reading area alongside minimalist lighting and neutral walls. Pairing classic carved giltwood legs with a contemporary fabric re-upholstery bridges historic craftsmanship with modern interior balance.

Maintain giltwood legs by dusting gently with a soft camel-hair brush, avoiding water, commercial polishes, or liquid cleansers that can dissolve water-gilding or gold leaf. Keep the frame away from direct heat sources and sudden humidity fluctuations to prevent cracking.
