What is a carver chair?

A carver chair is an armchair traditionally placed at the head or foot of a dining table. These pieces feature integrated armrests for added comfort during formal meals or administrative tasks at a desk.

How do I identify a Regency chair?

Regency chairs typically exhibit clean architectural lines, classical proportions, and often incorporate elements like sabre legs or scroll arms. Timber selection focuses heavily on mahogany, sometimes highlighted with subtle brass mounts or inlaid stringing.

Can I use these at a desk?

Many carver chairs function exceptionally well as desk chairs due to their supportive armrests and upright posture. Examples from the Regency period are particularly suited for writing tables and libraries.

What fabrics are used for upholstery?

Upholstery on these chairs ranges from standard textiles and fabrics to plush velvet. Selection depends on the specific period of the chair, with Edwardian and Victorian pieces often featuring softer, patterned treatments.
