The spoon back style features a concave, oval-shaped backrest carved to fit the contours of the human spine, popular during the mid-19th century.

These frames were typically crafted from dense hardwoods like walnut or mahogany, joined using traditional mortise and tenon techniques, and stuffed with natural fibres such as horsehair.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-cut joints, patination on the timber, traditional hand-tied coil springs, and wear patterns consistent with age rather than artificial distress.

Pair the traditional wooden frame with clean-walled contemporary spaces to create a striking contrast, using it as a statement reading chair.

Keep the wood nourished with appropriate microcrystalline wax and protect the upholstery from direct sunlight to prevent fading of the textile fibres.
