The “Evermore” Victorian Gothic Splat-Back Chair
Bespoke Artistry in Solid Beech & Royal Azure Velvet
A Sculptural Masterpiece for Modern Living
The Evermore Victorian Chair is a celebration of the carver’s craft. Taking inspiration from the dramatic lines of 19th-century Gothic Revival furniture, this chair features a stunningly detailed central splat and an open-work crest rail. It is a piece designed for those who appreciate furniture as a form of fine art—where every angle reveals a new hand-carved detail.
Whether you are curating a grand dining room or looking for a single statement piece to elevate a corner of your home, the Evermore provides a perfect balance of historical weight and airy, graceful design.
Old-World Beech Wood Construction
Unlike flat-packed or machine-made alternatives, this chair is built using traditional joinery and solid European Beech wood. Beech is specifically chosen for its density and fine grain, allowing our artisans to carve intricate “3D” floral rosettes that maintain their sharp edges for decades.
- Intricate Central Splat: The violin-shaped back support is adorned with hand-carved grapevines and floral clusters, representing abundance and artisanal skill.
- Finial Crest Rail: The top rail is flanked by two hand-turned finials and a scalloped floral crown, adding a regal “throne-like” quality to the height.
- Carved Front Apron: The beauty continues below the seat, where a draped floral garland is carved into the front rail, connecting the elegantly fluted legs.
- Hand-Applied Walnut Stain: The wood is finished in a multi-step walnut tone, polished to a soft luster that highlights the hand-chiselled textures.
The Ultimate Transition Piece
The Evermore chair is a “designer’s secret” due to its ability to function in two distinct ways:
- Formal Dining: Its armless silhouette and upright back make it an ideal dining chair. It provides excellent posture support while allowing for easy movement around a crowded table.
- Occasional Accent: Because the back is so visually interesting, this chair looks incredible when placed against a wall, in a bedroom, or in an entryway where the silhouette can be appreciated from a distance.
✨ Designer’s Note: Creating a “Set”
“While these chairs are spectacular as individuals, they truly shine in a group. If using them for dining, consider pairing them with a heavy oak or walnut table to ground the set. The royal blue velvet is a ‘true blue’—it pairs beautifully with brass candlesticks and crisp white linens for a high-contrast, luxury look.”
Bespoke Care & Maintenance
- Velvet Seat: The seat features a high-performance azure velvet. Simply use a soft brush to keep the pile uniform. If a spill occurs, blot with a dry cloth immediately.
- The Carvings: Use a soft-bristled brush (like a clean paintbrush) to occasionally dust the intricate crevices of the back splat to maintain the wood’s depth and detail.
