Howard and Sons armchairs are characterised by their deep, comfortable proportions, low rolled arms, and high-quality traditional upholstery techniques, often bearing stamped brass castors.

These pieces typically feature beech frames, traditional webbed and coil-sprung seats, horsehair stuffing, and cotton or linen upholstery fabrics.

Authenticity is often verified by makers stamps on the legs or castors, specific numbering systems, distinctive frame construction, and traditional stuffing materials.

Pair the chair with minimalist contemporary furnishings to create a balanced contrast, allowing the traditional silhouette and pattern to serve as a focal point.

Protect the fabric from direct sunlight to prevent fading, vacuum gently with a soft brush attachment, and have the upholstery professionally cleaned when necessary.
