Pair of 19th Century French Empire Mahogany Library Chairs

About the Item

An excellent quality pair of 19th century mahogany library armchairs, in the French empire taste, having swept back and moulded scrolling arms with C-scroll supports raised on elegant moulded sabre legs (A relative typical design in the early to mid-19th century these chairs are in the French Empire taste which was most popular at the time, with the added benefit of being much more sturdy and practical than the English Regency Chaise Lounges and similar which were being produced in this period They are very good quality however and it is nice that they are constructed from mahogany, rather than a softer, less dense wood which may have worn significantly my now. They are very comfortable, very practical and in excellent condition, ready to be placed into a whole host of different positions and uses around the home).
