This Regency library side chair dates from the 19th century and is made of dark brown mahogany and woven cane with a polished finish. The piece takes the form of a barrel back side chair with a swept barrel back, a curved top rail with a scrolled over top edge, woven cane panels on the backrest and seat, turned front legs with lotus leaf carving, and sabre rear legs. Visible details include turned tapering front legs with carved decoration and a tight woven cane structure. The chair measures 80 cm high, 50 cm wide, and 47 cm deep. It functions as a library side chair for seating use in a home interior.

Regency barrel back chairs, emerging in the early 19th century, feature a continuous curved backrest that wraps around the sitter, often incorporating woven cane panels for lightness and neoclassical proportions inspired by Greco-Roman design.

These chairs were primarily crafted from hardwoods such as mahogany or rosewood, paired with hand-woven natural cane for the back and seat panels, supported by turned or tapered legs.

Authentic period pieces display hand-carved timber details, hand-threaded woven cane secured through drilled holes along the frame, traditional mortise and tenon joinery, and natural surface patination.

A Regency library chair functions well as an accent piece in a study, hallway, or bedroom, pairing rich timber tones with contemporary decor to highlight its architectural silhouette.

To prevent natural cane from drying out and snapping, maintain moderate indoor humidity, position the chair away from direct heat sources, and occasionally wipe the underside with a damp cloth to retain flexibility.
