Rare Liberty & Co William Birch Armchair c.1910

This is a rare example of a classic William Birch of High Wycombe mahogany armchair likely designed by Eg Punnett for Liberty & Co London. The chair is a wonderful individual design. We have a raised deep back rail with a fabulously detailed classic design of mixed wood marquetry which is mimicked to both sides. The ends terminate in matched slender capped uprights, the whole piece sits on well shaped sled type feet. Upholstered back in period inspired quality fabric. The chair sits firm with no wobbles or repairs. Historic wear marks, as expected but nothing nasty with a pleasing deep tone and colour. We can assist with a little cushion pad for the seat if you require one at a cost of £90 plus fabric, around 1 meter would be required. Without doubt a super looking period armchair. Billy Hunt has successfully focused on British furniture and lighting since 2014 and always has an interesting ever changing selection of carefully chosen pieces from the early 1800s to late 1970s. Our base is a large Victorian 2 storey red brick barn on a wonderful traditionally run country estate in Staffordshire. We are able to offer a first class upholstery service and also assistance in interior design if requested. Our extensive client base covers; the celebrated, interior designers, film companies and ladies and gentlemen like us who enjoy our professional, friendly and knowledgeable approach.
