ANTIQUE #SA434488

Late 19thc Mahogany And Leather Child's Armchair Of Large Proportions

£595    $817    €684
A good quality late 19th century mahogany and leather child''s armchair of large proportion, possibly by C & R Light.
 
This chair consists of a finely carved top rail with central ebonised finial with carved scroll design with foliage and flower decoration as well as scallop shell and other carving.
 
The chair uprights lead down to the arms which have padded armrests with turned supports.
 
The back and seat are upholstered in original brown leather fixed with dome studs. The leather does have a worn appearance but I feel this adds to the character of the piece.
 
The front legs are turned and the back legs are of splay design terminating with brass and porcelain castors.
 
This design of chair was typically produced by C & R Light, one of the larger wholesale furniture makers in London in the late 19th-early 20th centuries. They were based in Curtain Road, Shoreditch & this area was the hub of the International furniture trade at this time.
 
This piece is in good original ...
