Description

The idea to re-upholster this comfortable pair of finely carved mahogany Edwardian armchairs to such a high standard with a lovely quality contemporary fabric was Jean Allam's. Jean was a very knowledgeable, much-loved, and highly respected, dealer from Dorking, She always pressed restorers and upholsterers to work to the highest standard. She loved fabrics and interior decoration. You always knew a piece of Jean's stock, it was crisp and beautifully presented. This pair of chairs is typical of Jean's ability to find pieces that have cross-over appeal - antiques that enhance a contemporary interior. Jean sold these attractive chairs to a local lady. As you can see from the images, the owner's daughter was probably right when she mentioned her mother didn't sit in them, but just enjoyed them. I am always pleased to be given the chance to purchase stock that once belonged to Jean. Like this pair of chairs, they are well chosen and nearly always in excellent condition.
