How do I spot a revival chair?

Revival chairs often display the heavier timber scantlings and machine-assisted detailing typical of nineteenth-century workshops. They replicate earlier eighteenth-century proportions while utilising contemporary construction markers. Examination of the timber undersides, screw types and secondary woods reveals whether a piece dates to the Georgian period or the later revival eras.

What is a Gainsborough armchair?

A Gainsborough chair is a wide, open-armed library seat designed for comfort during extended periods of reading or writing. They feature upholstered seats and armpads set on low frames. These chairs bridge the gap between office seating and domestic drawing room furniture.

Are these chairs suitable for daily dining?

Dining chairs in these styles are built with robust mahogany frames designed to withstand regular domestic use. Leather seats offer durability and practical maintenance for daily seating. Larger sets allow for uniform seating around principal dining tables.

How should I care for old leather?

Antique leather benefits from regular dusting and occasional treatment with appropriate conservation waxes or balms to prevent drying. Avoiding direct sunlight and heat sources preserves the natural hide. Gentle maintenance protects hand-dyed finishes and maintains the suppleness of the material.
