19th Century Open Arm Library Armchair

Classic 19th Century antique low laid back style of an open arm upholstered arm chair is the epitome of a country house classic open arm armchair You cannot beat the reclining rake of this 19th century designed armchair, immediately positioning you for a relaxing comfortable time whilst reading your favourite book. It seems someone back in time the brief was...the chair has to look absolutely fabulous, have the best look from any angle, be made from high quality materials (usually hardwood), embellish the chair will an interesting features and make its so it follows the contours of a body. Not much is required really! This example has just this...hardwood frame, carved and turned legs with a subtle detailing to the frog legs. The rear legs are swept back with original brass & ceramic castors. The open arms have padded fabric for additional comfort and it has been reupholstered at some point with a quality material. The material is clean and perfectly useable. Frame is sound and firm with no loose joints. Another nice feature is the serpentine design of the back and arms highlighting the relicined design the manufacturer of the time wanted to capture. Delightful shape.
