How do I identify a Georgian mahogany framed chair?

Georgian pieces typically display restrained carving, dense Cuban mahogany timber, and classical proportions associated with the 18th century. Later revival pieces from the Edwardian period often copy these forms but utilise lighter internal construction and different secondary woods.

Were these chairs used primarily in libraries?

Many large armchairs and Gainsborough chairs were designed specifically for reading rooms and libraries, paired with heavy leather upholstery for durability. Other forms, such as nursing chairs and side chairs, served bedrooms and drawing rooms with lighter fabric coverings.

How should I care for leather upholstery?

Leather upholstery requires regular dusting and occasional conditioning to maintain its suppleness and prevent cracking over time. Avoiding direct sunlight helps preserve the natural colour of antique hides.
