Heavily Carved Lion Hairy Paw Feet Victorian Armchair Sky Blue Velvet George II
About the Item
We are delighted to offer for sale this lovely hand made in England antique Victorian armchair with heavily carved Lion’s hairy paw feet in the George II style
This chair is really a statement piece, the solid walnut frame is hand carved all over, you have Lions hairy paw feet, Irish acanthus leaves, the absolute works, if this was an original George II piece is would be five times more expensive. As it is this is a later mid Victorian version so you have all the charm and character without the horrific price tag
The upholstery is vintage, it has a nice faded English country house look and feel to it, very comfortable and looks good in any setting
The timber has been cleaned waxed and polished from top to bottom, the upholstery apart from a light hoover has been left original, it has some light patina marks to the back and as mentioned some fading

IMPORTANT PAIR OF GEORGE III HAND CARVED CIRCA 1780 ANTIQUE LIONS PAW ARMCHAIRs
Located in West Sussex, Pulborough
Royal House Antiques
Royal House Antiques is delighted to offer for sale this Important pair of George III circa 1780-1800 hand carved library armchairs with ornate Lions Hairy Paw feet covered in grapevines
Please note the delivery fee listed is just a guide, it covers within the M25 only for the UK and local Europe only for international, if you would like an accurate quote, please send me your postcode and I’ll provide you with the exact price.
These are the finest pair of library reading armchairs I have ever seen, they are circa 1780-1800, the legs are long and elegant, they start with grapevine carvings to the top and follow down with an extremely elegant curve to the Lions hairy paw feet, they are an absolute work of art
The upholstery is early embroidery, this was very much the fashion of the day and still is, the idea was for the lady of the house to prove she could keep herself quiet and occupied and not disturb her husband, the way she achieved this was by doing embroidery in her parlour, the more ornate and exquisite the higher the skill of the lady
Condition wise, there will be some age and use related patina marks here and there to the fabric, you can see the worst of it in the pictures, as ever with this type of furniture it really doesn't matter, the fact that it still exists is the important thing. the timber all has its original finish so it will be drenched in character, we have cleaned waxed and polished the wood
