Ralph Lauren Granham Black Italian Leather Armchair & Florence Ottoman Rare Find

About the Item

We are delighted to offer this lovely Ralph Lauren Grantham armchair and Matching Florence footstool ottoman The chair is a custom order, everything with Ralph Lauren has a never ending spec list, this piece has been ordered with the fully upholstered sprung back as opposed to a cushion, its slightly more expensive but preferred on pieces that are designed to last the ages, upholstered sprung backs by design have been going back hundreds of years. The base cushion is a split panel feather filled piece, simply put they are the most expensive luxury cushions you will ever find, it has three panels, a central luxury dense foam core, then goose down feathers above and below, the reason being is solid feather cushions sink and sag which can wear and damage the leather casing, split panels keeps everything where it should and offers unparalleled comfort The leather upholstery is 100% fully aniline cattle hide, the chair was initially upholstered with plain russet hide and then hand dyed to the customers specification, it’s a substantially more expensive process rather than using prdyed leather. The hand dying process is used on chairs that you want to have unevenness to the color, so it looks and feels like it has some age character and charm from day one The foot stool is all hand tacked and nailed using traditional furniture making techniques In terms of condition we have deep cleaned hand condition waxed and hand polished the pair from top to bottom, the footstool is missing a little trim around the base, the armchair has some fading as mentioned, the fabric base and seat covers are notoriously weak on Ralph Lauren armchairs, as such they have been replaced professionally with stronger fabric Armchair Dimensions Height:- 80cm Width:- 79cm Depth:- 93cm Footstool Dimensions Height:- 43cm Width:- 51.5cm Depth:- 48cm Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point, if you would like any additional or specific measurements please ask Any questions please feel free to ask before you bid Delivery or Collection This item is available for collection from our Wimbledon warehouses SW19-3BE, we can have it delivered nationwide to include Scotland Wales and Ireland, please contact me with your postcode for a delivery quotation, please be sure to include which item you would like to buy as the price is determined on size and distance, if you would like more than one piece of furniture we offer a substantial discount on the second and third item, for international shipping please view the below information Condition Please view the very detailed pictures as they form part of the description around condition Please also ask any questions before you bid and not after, all of our items are sold as seen and as listed Please note vintage period and original items such as leather seating will always have natural patina in the form of cracking creasing and wear, we recommend regular waxing to ensure no moisture is lost, also hand dyed leather is not recommended to sit in direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time as it will dry out and fade Courier (Large Items Only That Can’t Be Posted) We can arrange delivery nationwide, mostly with Wimbledon couriers, for the very far North and South we use KDM couriers, for Europe we use Anyvan to find the cheapest quote, for the rest of the world it is location specific Whoever delivers will usually require some help on the larger items to unload, if this is not possible please let us know as it will affect the price to send a two man team Delivery is to the ground floor only, again if you need help upstairs or in flats etc that's absolutely not a problem, the couriers charge £10 per flight per man per item, if you have a working elevator then naturally there’s no additional fee All courier fees are paid by yourself directly to the courier company, the contract for delivery is between yourselves the client and whichever courier you chose from those available I’m happy to accommodate your own courier after a cleared payment has been received, they need to book in a collection time with at least 24 hour’s notice, all collections must be made within 14 working days of the close of the auction unless agreed by prior arrangement International Delivery time can take two to three weeks depending on the courier’s routes for the above mentioned countries The price listed is just a guide, please contact us for a quote before buying, if you have your own courier or wish to book the collection in yourself we are happy to accommodate you.

Ralph Lauren

To suggest that Ralph Lauren has come a long way is an understatement. From his humble beginnings as a tie salesman working out of a drawer at New York’s Empire State Building, he grew one of the world’s largest and most successful fashion empires from scratch.

For decades, Ralph Lauren’s clothing brand has blended classic, preppy Americana East Coast-style with the look of upper-crust English aristocracy. This style is the hallmark of Ralph Lauren’s design and can be seen in all facets of his brand, from its vintage apparel, accessories and jewelry to furniture and décor.

The iconic fashion designer was born Ralph Rueben Lifshitz in New York City and grew up in the Bronx. When he and his brother were in their teens, they changed their surname from Lifshitz to Lauren after being teased about it at school. Later on, Lauren took business classes at night, worked at various menswear retailers and did a stint in the U.S. Army. While working at tie manufacturer Beau Brummel, he was inspired to create his own line of ties.

In 1967, Lauren launched “Polo,” ties handmade from high-quality fabrics featuring a wide design. They were a success. Lauren sold $500,000 worth to retail giants Bloomingdale’s, Neiman Marcus and Paul Stuart in his first year.

Lauren expanded his designs into clothing, with his first menswear line of classic tweed suits in 1968 and, in 1971, his first line of womenswear featuring classic feminine tailoring. Lauren’s nostalgic fashion soon captured the eye of Hollywood. He created costumes for the 1974 adaptation of The Great Gatsby and was responsible for Diane Keaton’s distinctive feminine menswear look in 1977’s Annie Hall. Ralph Lauren’s designs have since garnered national and international acclaim and recognition — from Gwyneth Paltrow’s iconic pink 1999 Oscars dress to becoming the official outfitter of Team USA for the Olympics since 2008.

In 2018, Ralph Lauren celebrated his 50th anniversary with a star-studded fashion show and, in 2019, was awarded an honorary knighthood — the highest British honor — for services to fashion.
