Description:
The armchair features a padded curved back, secured by shaped arms, on curved vertical supports. The chair boasts padded leather back, with a curved oak frame surrounding. The padded back and sprung seat has been upholstered in top quality burgundy red Rexene leather, which has been finished with hand-tacked brass studs to the perimeter. The underside of the seat has been re-webbed in the traditional manner. The chair sits on four splayed oak legs that terminate on brass castors. The chair rotates 360 degrees; the seat height can be adjusted by turning a ribbed metal screw on the underside of the chair.
Condition Report:
The chair and mechanism are in good working condition. Nominal old use marks to the leading edges of the chair and legs but nothing significant considering the age of the item. The chair seat is upholstered in good quality burgundy red Rexene leather. The upholstery is in good condition, with no holes. The chair frame incorporates the traditional brass studwork tacks to the seat perimeter and traditional hessian material to the underside. The reclining and adjustable height mechanism is in good working order, having been cleaned and serviced in our workshop. There is some play to the mechanism but this is perfectly acceptable, and in line with the age of the chair.
