Perfectly Hand Carved and Superb Condition Antique Gothic Revival Armchair Chair

About the Item

Good size and great condition Gothic, throne-like armchair. The only way for us to explain the superb condition of this stunning Gothic chair is to assume that it has always been in a church or monastery. It was there where these works of religious art were respected the most and therefor taken care of better than anywhere else. Since churches often also had more funds than most private people, they would also have the best quality pieces made and this armchair too fits that bill. The turned and leafs decorated legs and armrest supports are extremely well carved and in mint condition. The church window like pannels in the back and the sculptural leaf decor on top of the backrest are equally impressive. This kind of quality, style and beauty was already exceptional in those days and in furniture stores in this day and age, nothing new comes even close to the quality and beauty of the craftsmanship displayed in this antique chair. After more than 120 years this incredibly well carved Gothic chair still is as strong and stabile as the day it left the artisan's studio and it is absolutely ready for you to use and enjoy. It would obviously again look perfect in a church or monastery, but a chair like this also is the perfect eyecatcher in your entry hall, bedroom or library. If you are looking for the perfect Gothic antique to grace your interior then this perfectly hand carved chair could be yours to enjoy soon. Mind you, our fair price even includes perfect packing (in a custom made crate) and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days. Maximum height 45.3 x width 26.8 x depth 22.8 inches. Seat height: 18.1 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 1000+ listings by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.

  • Largest Antique & Top Quality Hand Carved Gothic Revival Barometer & Thermometer
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Exceptional and unique, 3 feet tall, Gothic Revival wall barometer, circa 1890. This unique antique from the second half of the 19th century, in our view, is the dream of anyone with a Gothic (inspired) interior. This design could not be more Gothic and to have found a barometer of this size and with this many Gothic details, again, felt like a blessing. And even though we had to pay-up to be able to acquire it, when you find an antique that is this rare and good then you should always try to buy it. This monumental and solid nutwood antique barometer is entirely hand carved and, as you can see in our photos, the workmanship is second to none. This work of Gothic wall art is perfectly symmetrical and we love the fact that only the large church pilars are carved in a different pattern. This rare design feature, to us, shows the creative nature of its designer. We also love the many Gothic church spires on top and the way this entire 'composition' is superbly balanced. There also is small 'ledge' underneath the barometer and thermometer, possibly for displaying some small sculptures. The only downside would be that the inside of the barometer/thermometer is not squeaky clean. Maybe it is easy to open the front of the barometer, but we have no experience with that. Have you also noticed the amazingly detailed Gothic leafs at the top of both the large pilars? They too display the amazing workmanship of a seasoned craftsman. Besides the enormous height and width, what also makes this rare barometer truly impressive is its depth, because this almost gives you the idea of looking at a magnificent barometer through 3D glasses. All these top quality and impressive details together make this Gothic barometer...
