17th Century Style Leather Upholstered Armchair


HANDMADE OLD-OAK REPLICA FURNITURE

One of a pair of 17th Century Style Leather Upholstered Armchairs, handmade (click this link to appreciate what goes into our handmade furniture) from old reclaimed oak. Modelled on a c.1680 example, featured in Victor Chinnery's book "Oak Furniture, The British Tradition", the author points out the rarerity of any sort of turnings to the rear legs of English chairs. The seat height etc. were carefully worked out with our client and the chairs were made so the arms slide under the table top.

With grateful thanks to Nick Humphrey (Curator - Furniture, Textiles and Fashion Dept., Victoria & Albert Museum, London SW7 2RL), for his invaluable assistance during research for this project.

Price Guide: Low end of D, handmade in old reclaimed oak, and upholstered in aged leather, including handmade upholstery nails (each chair). Upper half of C, as above but excluding handmade upholstery nails (each chair). a More links to detail photos below
