Description
A lovely mahogany library chair dating from the late 19th Century. It is a good comfortable chair and very well made with a cane seat. It has an attractive shape with a curving back supported by nicely shaped splats and two scrolling arms. It stands on bulbous turned legs joined by turned stretchers. It makes a lovely desk chair but would also be a nice library or hall chair.
It comes with a shaped feather filled cushion to fit the seat and the arms have been upholstered in matching fabric. The rear of the seat is stamped with the maker's initials RR.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
measurements
The chair is approximately 31" (79cm) high and the arms are 25 1/4" (64cm) wide. The seat is 20" (51cm) deep and approximately 17" (43cm) high.
