Fine Pair of Antique Original William Morris & Co Edinburgh Stamped Armchairs
About the Item
We are delighted to offer for sale this stunning pair of very rare, William Morris & Co Edinburgh stamped, his & hers Library armchairs in grey linen
These are a very rare and highly collectable pair of period Victorian Morris & Co stamped armchairs. William Morris's work is literally world famous, I have only ever come across two other pieces, both satinwood desks, one of which has sold, the other is listed under my other items
These chairs are large library armchairs, they are a his and hers pair as mentioned meaning one is slightly larger than the other, they have been recently refurbished to include new grey linen upholstery and castors, the mahogany has been washed back and lightly french polished
The inside back leg of one chair is stamped with the serial number 3201 and the opposite leg is stamped very faintly Morris & Co Edinburgh, the stamps were difficult to picture however I have included a shot of each, you can see them easier in normal light / real life
Condition wise, apart from one small transport mark I can see, they look to be in gallery ready condition

- Antique Original William Morris Sussex Rope Seat Armchair Seen in the V&A MuseumBy William Morris (English)Located in GBWe are delighted to offer for sale this lovely very rare and collectable William Morris Rush seat Sussex armchair circa 1870-1880 as seen in the Victorian and Albert museum The History This chair was named after a country chair found in Sussex, which inspired the design with the turned frame and rush seat. Similar types of chairs, with imitation bamboo frames and rush seats, were fashionable between 1790 and 1820. Ownership & Use William Morris and his wife, Jane, used Sussex chairs in their first home, Red House, Bexleyheath, Kent, from 1860 and subsequently in their London house, Kelmscott House, Hammersmith. Morris's great friend, the artist Edward Burne-Jones (1833-1898) had Sussex armchairs in his studio, as did the sculptor, Alfred Gilbert (1854-1934). Robert Edis recommended this chair as 'excellent, comfortable and artistic' in his influential book, 'Decoration and Furnishing of Town Houses in 1881'. Examples from the Sussex range were supplied for students' rooms at Newnham College...Category
