Primitive Irish Vernacular Country Armchair

Primitive Irish vernacular country armchairs are a captivating example of traditional furniture, reflecting the rural lifestyle and skilled craftsmanship of Ireland. These chairs showcase a harmonious blend of practicality, locally sourced materials, and the creativity of rural artisans. The styling is so organic, creating a vernacular piece of furniture to simply serve a utilitarian purpose in life. But what materialises from the locally sourced materials available at the time of making, is quite remarkable. The mind of the local artisan is so inspiring. The small embellishments added to the central back support is such a lovely touch. The colour alone is sublime in its own right and every tiny detail is wonderful. Just stand back, admire from every angle, soak it up and then eventually take a seat.
