A splendid pair of mid Victorian gentleman’s spoonback library armchairs dating to c.1860. Button upholstered in a fine deep burgundy leather and with a curvaceous rococo style mahogany show-wood frame with acanthus carved crest and c-scrolls to the back. With super out-curved arms above a serpentine shaped seat and scrolling carved cabriole legs with French scroll feet and ceramic castors.
In very good condition and appearing to be very recently upholstered these would make lovely fireside or library chairs.
The overall dimensions at the largest points of each are approximately
Width - 26in (66cm)
Depth - 33 1/2in (85cm)
Height - 43 1/4in (110cm)
Seats - 20 1/2in wide x 22in deep x 16 1/2in high (52cm x 56cm x 42cm)?

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.
