FAQs

Tub chairs emerged during the Georgian period, characterised by a high curved back that wraps continuously into low arms, designed to protect sitters from drafts in period rooms.

Authentic period tub chairs typically feature a solid hardwood frame, such as mahogany, walnut, or oak, joined with traditional mortise and tenon techniques, and traditionally stuffed with horsehair and wool.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the hand-carved details, timber grain, patina, traditional joinery methods, and underlying upholstery webbing and stuffing materials.

An antique tub chair can be integrated into modern schemes by pairing it with minimalist furniture to create a contrasting focal point or by reupholstering it in a contemporary textured fabric.

Preservation requires keeping the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources, regularly dusting the timber with a dry cloth, applying occasional beeswax, and using professional cleaning methods for the fabric.
