About the Item

A finely crafted English armchair in burl wood, dating to the early 20th century, featuring a rich combination of clean architectural lines and refined details. The shaped seat and rectangular padded backrest are both upholstered in a warm brown leather secured with brass nailhead trim, offering both comfort and a tailored, traditional finish. The distinctive curved arm supports add sculptural interest to the form, while the legs terminate in subtly flared, turned disc feet—sometimes called bell feet—underscoring the chair’s classical inspiration. The honey-toned burl wood exhibits beautiful natural figuring, particularly visible across the back panel and the front seat rail. Together with the upholstered elements, this armchair reflects a fusion of Edwardian-era restraint and neoclassical revival elegance. Sturdy and generously scaled, the chair works well as a desk, library, or occasional armchair. Its blend of warmth and formal design makes it a strong candidate for both traditional and eclectic interiors.
