O. Davies (Complete Home Furnishings) of Porchester Road, London. Amazingly, this chaise longue still retains its original brown leather upholstery, which is in excellent condition. It is very rare to see chaises of this age, especially in leather, which retains its original upholstery. This chaise has clearly had very little use over its lifetime and has been well looked after.
The frame and turned legs are constructed of solid mahogany terminating in the original turned legs with the original brass & mug castors. The frame features an attractive up-swept carved left hand arm with pretty floral carvings to the arm and reeded frame. The chaise has a straight front. The front fascia is mirrored in the back design with a central floral support splat. The chaise can seat up to 3 persons.
The frame of the chaise lounge features a rich mahogany colour. As it boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic colour and patination.
