What periods do these armchairs cover?

The selection spans the nineteenth century up to the 1930s. Pieces range from Victorian folk art and neoclassical designs to 1920s and 1930s art deco. Earlier nineteenth-century examples sit alongside twentieth-century modern and empire style items.

Are most chairs sold in pairs?

A substantial portion of the inventory consists of matched pairs. This applies particularly to the twentieth-century art deco satin birch models. Single pieces appear more frequently among the nineteenth-century folk art and rocking chair categories.

What woods are commonly found?

Birch, satin birch, and burr birch dominate the twentieth-century pieces. Earlier furniture relies on mahogany, elm, pine, and painted or ebonised woods. Surfaces range from polished timber grains to original painted finishes.

How do I distinguish art deco from neoclassical styles?

Art deco chairs from the 1920s and 1930s feature sweeping, rounded forms and pronounced satin or burr birch grains. Neoclassical pieces from the nineteenth century display straighter lines and darker woods like mahogany. Folk art examples show simpler, country-made vernacular construction.
