About the Item

We are delighted to offer for sale this very rare Victorian hand carved show framed Salon armchair with Lion detailing and stamped castors A good find, its rare to come across show framed salon armchairs with carving this ornate and in walnut instead of the standard mahogany is a nice feature. The castors are all stamped and they look to read Flehmerd which I’ve not heard of before, I’ll be taking my loop to the warehouse shortly to properly investigate The real piece de resistance of this chair is the Lion carved arms, they are exquisite and really set the chair apart from all others from the era, that coupled with the original embroidered upholstery seat base. Embroidery on Victorian furniture was done by the ladies of the day, it proved they could be well behaved and not annoy their husbands and that they were educated and talented in tasks relating to the home so could run a household, quite comical by today's standards but a great conversation piece We have deep cleaned hand condition waxed and hand polished the timber from top to bottom, there will be normal age related patina marks all over Dimensions: Height:- 111cm Width:- 75cm Depth:- 75cm Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point This item is available for collection from our Wimbledon warehouses. Condition: Please view the very detailed pictures as they form part of the description around condition Please note vintage period and original items such as leather seating will always have natural patina in the form of cracking creasing and wear, we recommend regular waxing to ensure no moisture is lost, also hand dyed leather is not recommended to sit in direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time as it will dry out and fade.
