A good mid Victorian walnut open armchair dating to c.1870. With a barrel shaped bow back leading to two open arms, above a seat with saddle shaping to the front and upholstered in brown hide leather. Standing on four square tapering legs outsplayed to the rear and joined by a crinoline stretcher. Would make an ideal office or desk chair and very comfy with a nice wide seat.
In solid condition, there is some fading to the outer left side, some dark marks around the hide on the rear, a small chip to below the back rest, the hide on the seat is worn and has a tear.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or for more photos.

When buying it is important appreciate antiques have long histories of daily use and as such, over time they
... gain minor scratches, marks, knocks, shrinkage splits, signs of old woodworm, lifts and losses to veneer, which combine with care and years of polishing to create an individual character and patina. We describe the main flaws and those that fall outside of this bracket but cannot describe each marks separately and therefore suggest you do take the time to request extra photos. We do offer a 14 day money back guarantee if you are unhappy with your purchase but cannot refund the return shipping cost. If you are not sure please do not buy without clarifying or take the view that the only way to have it as near to new as possible is to have it fully and comprehensively restored.
For delivery we use a small carrier experience in carrying antique furniture. Delivery is usually within 31 days and the carrier will make arrangements with you directly. We can provide contact details of other carriers if required.
