Description

With its attractive height winged back, our Venetta Chesterfield Wing has a touch of grandeur about it, but as always, it has your total comfort in mind with extra padding in the seat and wing so an afternoon nap is almost guaranteed. Cherished for its sultry curves, sweeping wings, hand-studded finish and luxurious comfort, the Venetta Wing Armchair looks equally gorgeous at home in a study, library or hallway.

For many centuries, lovers of comfortable and elegant furniture decorate their homes with high-back chairs in traditional English style. The British call this furniture “winged chair”. The grandfather of armchairs, our Venetta Chesterfield Wing could certainly tell you a story or two…

A Little History…

The Wing Chair began its long ancestry during the 1600’s, however, it was not until the late 1720’s that its popularity really began to take off. It was originally invented as a comfortable seat option that would prevent drafts from reaching the upper parts of the body, or to protect against the blustering heat of the large open fireplaces that were very much popular in the 16th and 17th hundreds. The wings of the infamous wing back chair were found on other furniture designs, particularly in England, on benches and similar furniture pieces. The popularity of the wing back chair really took off in colonial America, and many would also associate its intricate design features with that of French style furniture. Later in the 19th and 20th century, it became notably popular in the Nordic countries of the world – with a somewhat more Scandinavian approach to the design.

Nowadays, the history of the wing chair is still ever growing, with this beautiful statement piece being more popular than ever due to its versatility, timeless style and practicality. Whether you would like this piece to be placed in your bedroom or your living room, there are plenty of linens and leathers to suit your needs. And if you are a true lover of traditional, somewhat antique looking décor, you can complete the look with Chesterfield sofas and foot stools that perfectly match the wing back chair.
