Description
This exquisite Regency mahogany reclining chair, constructed from rich mahogany, this chair is a rare find and stands as a remarkable example of early 19th-century furniture design. The frame has been carefully preserved and remains in outstanding condition, showcasing the durability and quality of its build.
The chair's standout feature is its professionally upholstered seat and back, done in a soft, supple leather that has been hand-dyed using traditional methods to achieve a warm, unique brown hue. This process gives the leather a depth and richness that is not only beautiful but also contributes to the chair's distinct character.
The deeply buttoned seat and leg rest add an extra layer of comfort, while the padded, buttoned armrests offer a luxurious touch to this already exceptional piece.
Designed for both function and comfort, the reclining mechanism allows the chair to gently tilt back, reaching an almost fully reclining position.
The sturdy mahogany frame is a testament to the chair's superior quality, with its solid construction and intricate detailing. Its classic design is elevated by the addition of casters, allowing for easy mobility despite its stately presence.
The photos, though beautiful, cannot fully capture the charm and grandeur of this remarkable piece, which must be seen in person to be fully appreciated.
