RARE ORIGINAL REGENCY X FRAMED RECLINING BROWN LEATHER CHESTERFIELD ARMCHAiR

About the Item

We are delighted to offer for sale this exquisite original X Framed circa 1810-1820 Regency Reclining brown leather Chesterfield tufted armchair that has been fully restored What a chair! I have never seen another like it, the frame is traditional Regency and looks important and expensive from any angle This chair has been on a complete journey of restoration, the frame had some structural issues which have been restored by our in house carpenter, he also replaced the non-functioning castors for a suite of modern Victorian style Porcelain castors, the leather has been washed back, hand dyed six times, antiqued and sealed then waxed down and the frame lightly French polished, this piece has all the original charm and charisma but is restored to a state where it is ready to go for another 100 years Dimensions erected Height:- 124.5cm Width:- 58cm Depth:- 95.5cm Seat height:- 60.5cm Dimensions reclined Height:- 104cm Width:- 58cm Depth:- 155.5cm Seat height:- 56cm Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point, if you would like any additional or specific measurements please ask Any questions please feel free to ask before you bid CONDITION Please view the very detailed pictures as they form part of the description pertaining to the condition. Please also ask any questions before you bid and not after, all of our items are sold as seen and as listed We cannot be held liable for any independent assumptions made regarding the items we sell, if you are unsure on any point, please feel free to ask for clarity Please note vintage period and original items such as leather seating will always have natural patina in the form of creasing and wear, we recommend annual 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 DELIVERY OR COLLECTION Please be sure to include which item you would like to buy as the price is determined on size and distance, if you would like more than one piece of furniture the courier offers a substantial discount on the second and third item, for international shipping please view the below information COURIER, LARGE ITEMS ONLY THAT CAN’T BE POSTED We can arrange delivery worldwide, mostly with our nominated couriers and shippers, for Europe we use one reasonably priced professional company that we trust, for the rest of the world we use international shippers that can send any size item crated via air freight within 10-20 days after crating or soft packed and container shipped via sea freight within 60-90 days. The time frames outlined are guides only, non-domestic shipping is almost entirely governed by the airlines, sea freight loading times and custom clearances Whomever delivers will usually require help on the larger items to unload, the price you will be quoted will always be based on this assumption, if this is not possible, please let us know as it will affect the price to send a two-person team Delivery is to the ground floor only, again if you need help upstairs or in flats etc that's absolutely not a problem, the couriers charge a small fee for stairs, if you have a working elevator there’s extra charge IMPORT DUTY Most countries charge some kind of import duty however almost all of our items won’t incur any charges as the items are exempt from tax due to the age and materials used For European deliveries the price you will be quoted will include all clearance documentation and any customs charges so there won’t be any additional fees For international deliveries such as the United States there can be some import duty to pay and or a clearance fee, I would estimate that 99% of all deliveries clear customs without being stopped for either All duties are the responsibility of the purchaser who is the importer, they can’t be covered by the seller or shipping agent or factored in with additional retrospective discounts RETURNS We offer a no quibble return policy if the item is not as described, if there are any issues with the piece you will be refunded in full once the item has been returned and inspected within 14 days, alternatively if there is a small issue, we can discuss finding a mutual resolution that makes all parties happy We don’t offer a “sale on approval” service which means you can purchase the item, have it delivered and if you simply don’t like it, return it, this comes under change of mind or doesn’t fit. There is a lot of time, money and work involved in transporting goods around the world, the costs incurred can be vast so my advice would be if you are unsure on a piece please ask as many questions as you like (after reading the description in full and looking at all the pictures) to make sure you understand everything before you buy, if you are still unsure then please either arrange a viewing in person or if that’s not possible then don’t buy from an online retailer, perhaps look for a local gallery instead
