FAQs

Howard and Sons was a prominent London-based upholstery and cabinet-making firm established in the 19th century, renowned for producing exceptionally comfortable, high-quality seating that became a staple of English country house interior design.

Authentic pieces typically feature robust beech frames, traditional coil spring suspension systems tied by hand, horsehair stuffing, and heavy hessian or ticking under-upholstery to ensure structural integrity and enduring comfort.

Verification often relies on identifying makers marks stamped directly onto the wooden cast legs, serial numbers, printed ticking fabric linings, and the characteristic sturdy weight and precise profile of the frame.

This seating pairs effectively with contemporary minimalist decor to add historical contrast, or within a layered, traditional scheme alongside antique wooden tables and textured natural textiles.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming with a soft brush attachment, avoiding direct prolonged sunlight to prevent fabric degradation, and consulting professional conservators for any structural or upholstery repairs.
