Description:
This is a fine quality English early Victorian mahogany armchair, with a newly upholstered seat, circa 1840, in excellent condition. The chair is constructed from solid mahogany and features a curved, kidney shaped back, with a floral carved horizontal central splat, secured by scroll shaped arms. The drop-in seat has been newly upholstered in top quality luxurious pale gold floral pattern cotton & structured silk brocade upholstery. If you do not like the colour/style of the upholstery, we can re-cover the seat in a fabric of your choice, for an additional £35. The seat has also been professionally re-stuffed and re-webbed. The underside of the seat is finished with traditional hessian backing. The seat is firm but extremely comfortable to sit on. The chair stands on fine fluted, baluster turned legs at the front and sabre legs to the rear.
