Customizable Pair of Victorian Renaissance Revival Parlor Chairs

A beautiful, matched pair of late-19th-century Renaissance Revival parlor chairs. Solid wood frames with carved details, turned legs, and original-style casters.

These chairs represent the Renaissance Revival style popular in the United States and Europe during the mid-to-late Victorian era. This period saw a fascination with 16^th-century architectural motifs, which craftsmen adapted into furniture with heavy moldings, finials, and intricate wood carving. The presence of brass casters on the front legs indicates they were designed for formal parlors, allowing for easy repositioning during social gatherings.

Professionally refinished to bring out the depth of the wood grain, and fully reupholstered with fresh padding for modern comfort and everyday use. These are statement chairs — perfect as fireside seating, bedroom accents, or anchoring a formal sitting room.

Fabric and shipping are additional; local pickup in Philadelphia area available.

How Ordering Works

This chair is restored and finished to order, tailored to your style from start to finish. Turnaround is approximately 4 to 6 weeks once we finalize your selections and I have your fabric in hand.

1. Choose your look
   Pick your upholstery fabric (and any finish preferences for the frame). If you’re not sure, I’m happy to help you narrow options so it fits your space and lifestyle.
2. Send your fabric or have me source it
   I gladly accept Customer’s Own Material—you can ship or drop off your fabric. Prefer that I source it? I can do that too (fabric costs are separate).
3. Restoration + upholstery
   I’ll refinish the frame per your preferences, rebuild the seat as needed for comfort and longevity, and upholster everything with a clean, tailored finish.
4. Pickup or shipping
   Local pickup in Philadelphia is available. White-glove shipping can be arranged at additional cost.

Customer’s Own Material Guidelines

• Please send upholstery-weight fabric suitable for seating (I can confirm before you purchase).
• Yardage depends on pattern repeat and fabric width—message me your fabric link or a photo and I’ll tell you exactly what you need.
• Turnaround begins when the fabric arrives.

Pricing Note

Fabric and shipping are additional. Your final quote will be confirmed once we select fabric/finish details and any seat rebuild needs are assessed.
