Description:
Here is a fine quality antique English Edwardian oak revolving office armchair, circa 1910, in good working original condition. The armchair incorporates a curved bar back, connected to down swept shaped arms, supported by an elegant splayed vertical fan back. The arms and back connect to a shaped, circular solid oak “saddle shaped” seat. The chair sits on four splayed oak legs that terminate on solid brass castors. The chair incorporates a revolving mechanism and it rotates 360 degrees; the seat height can be adjusted by turning a ribbed metal screw on the underside of the chair. The mechanism also features a reclining action, the tension of which can be adjusted by turning a small wheel at the front of the mechanism. The chair mechanism has been restored and serviced and is in excellent working order. The chair is extremely comfortable to sit on as it features a lovely moulded seat.
Condition Report:
The chair and mechanism are in good working original condition. Nominal old use marks to the leading edges of the chair but nothing significant considering the age of the item. The reclining and adjustable height mechanism is in good working order, having just been cleaned and serviced. There is some play to the mechanism but this is perfectly acceptable, and in line with the age of the chair. There are not breaks or damage to the mechanism. The chair features a rich golden brown oak colour, having been cleaned and polished in our workshops. The chair features solid brass & mug castors, which are also in good condition. This item is solid in joint and ready to use.
