A beautifully matched pair of Antique Victorian mahogany tub chairs, dating from circa 1890–1910. Elegant in proportion and rich in colour, these refined armchairs showcase classic late-Victorian craftsmanship with their curved horseshoe backs, pierced splat detailing and turned legs united by traditional H-stretchers.
Crafted in solid mahogany, the frames display a deep, warm tone with an attractive time-earned patina. The rounded drop-in seat pads are upholstered in a classic striped fabric, offering comfortable everyday use while allowing for easy reupholstery should a more contemporary finish be desired.
Matching period pairs are increasingly difficult to source and highly desirable for symmetrical interior styling. These chairs would sit beautifully either side of a fireplace, in a hallway, bedroom, boutique setting or as occasional desk chairs.

Why We Love Them
The proportions are particularly appealing — compact yet substantial — and the pierced splat backs add visual lightness. As a pair, they bring balance and quiet authority to a room.
