Antiques of London

We are delighted to offer for sale this Antique Pair of Dutch Wingback Armchairs.

 Upholstered in hand-dyed brown cattle leather, exudes timeless elegance and showcases meticulous craftsmanship from a bygone era. With their tall backs and gracefully curved wings, these chairs offer both comfort and a stately presence in any room.

The classic wingback design features a high back and side wings that provide additional support and comfort. The hand-dyed brown leather upholstery presents a rich, warm tone, adding depth and character to the pieces. The natural variations in the leather grain create a unique texture, ensuring each chair has its own story to tell.

The hand-dyeing process used by professional restorers is an art form that preserves the integrity and beauty of the leather while allowing it to age gracefully. 

The restoration process begins with thoroughly cleaning the leather to remove any dirt, oils, or previous treatments that might affect dye absorption, ensuring a consistent color and stripping the original colour back. Next, restorers assess the leather for any repairs needed before applying the dye. This careful approach guarantees that the leather maintains its character while achieving a vibrant and even finish.

Deliveries & Collections

Before purchasing an item, please ask us for a quote by sending us your postcode. If you are happy with the quotation, we will schedule it.

The courier that will be delivering your item will require help to unload. The price that will be quoted will always be based on this assumption. If you need two men, the initial quote will change. It usually is £20-40 on top of the original quote. 

If you need an item carried upstairs, the courier charges extra. They charge £10-20 per flight. However, if you have a working elevator and the thing fits inside, then there should be no extra charge.

We prefer that the courier fees be paid by yourself directly to the company; the contract for delivery is between you and the chosen courier.

Alternatively, you can arrange the delivery yourself, or if you would like to collect, you can collect from our warehouse in Pulborough RH20 1DF.

Caring for your items

Vintage period and original items, such as leather seating, will always have a natural patina in the form of cracking, creasing and wear. 

We recommend regular waxing to ensure no moisture is lost and to keep out of sunlight.

For Hand-Dyed leather items, we don't recommend placing them in direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as they will dry out and fade.

For wood, we recommend regular, thorough cleaning and waxing also.
