About the Item

English late Regency period circa 1830 'Gothic' style armchairs of curule form having solid oak chamfer edge frames, the rectangular (upholstered) backs connecting padded-rest arms continuing into stretchered curule bases with round ebonized bosses. The design, and possibly the production of these chairs, is attributed to A. W. N. Pugin, the renowned Gothic Revival architect and designer most famously known for the interiors of the New Palace of Westminster, London. Biography: Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin (b. London, 1 March, 1812 – d. Ramsgate, 14 September, 1852) Commissioned at aged 15 to design 'Gothic style' furniture for Windsor Castle made by the firm of Morel and Seddon. He established his own cabinet-making firm in Covent Garden from 1827 to 1831 producing furniture in 'Gothic', 'Elizabethan', and 'Jacobean' styles; a table stamped 'A. Pugin' is in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum. Later he designed furniture for various patrons including Lord Shrewsbury and Charles Scarisbrick and published his first book, 'Gothic Furniture in the Style of the Fifteenth Century' in 1835. His most important and extensive later work was for the design of all interiors and furnishings for the New Palace of Westminster, London. Literature: Collard, Frances. 'Regency Furniture'. Woodbridge, Suffolk: Antique Collectors’ Club, 1985, p. 333.
