Item Description

An unusual pair of mid 19th century carved giltwood & velvet salon armchairs. Circa 1850.

The chairs have been fully re-sprung, reupholstered and covered in Designer's Guild blue 'Raven' velvet. The fabric backs has been treated with an advanced double fire retardant back coating, and all inners comply with regulations.

The gilding has been consolidated, retaining some original gold leaf, and black bole has been used. The gilding has a hard shell and it is smooth to the touch, but still showing some wear and ageing to capture its genuine heritage.

These chairs would have been designed for occasional use in the parlour or salon, they are however very comfortable, with a laid back design. There is some slight movement to the frame of the arms from left to right. The legs are all solid and sturdy, and sit on the original inset brass castors.
