Item Details

Large 18th Century English Leather Porters Chair
A Fabulous Grand Scale 18th Century English Mahogany and Leather Hall Porters Chair with Cupboard.


Of extremely grand scale, this chair would originally have graced the entrance hall of an important 18th century building. Designed for the night porter to sit in and protect them from the cold, the chair cocoons whoever is sitting in it. The leather is stitched and then further decorated studding to the top simulating a shell cresting, similar to the sort seen on important doorways of the period. The inside lower sections are buttoned. The leather has a fantastic colour and patination. It is also extremely comfortable to sit in and raised on castors. It has a cupboard with two doors in the lower section.
