This is a fine quality antique English Edwardian beech and sage green leather office armchair, circa 1910, in good condition. The chairs feature an elegant curved backrest above a bank of spindles, connected to shaped arms, which are secured by sweeping vertical supports. The chair seat has been newly upholstered with top quality full grain sage green leather, which has been finished with hand-tacked brass studs to the perimeter. The underside of the seat has been webbed in the traditional manner. Gently splayed legs to the front and rear support the chair. Functional chairs were typically made from beech, as this species of wood is a particularly strong wood. The chair is very comfortable to sit on, having a shaped backrest and padded seat; it also retains a lovely colour and patination.
The chair features a rich dark-brown beech colour. As it boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received. It would look superb in the home, especially the office, library or study. So don’t miss out your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.
