- 18th Century English George III Period Mahogany Armchair with Modern FabricLocated in Chicago, ILThis is a finely carved 1760 English George III armchair. The George III period was named after the English monarch of the time. It was popular among the elite and mercantile class of people, due to its excellent material and intricate carvings.

This chair has been entirely carved out of mahogany; a premiere wood choice known for its durability, longevity, and rich coloring.
