Rare Suite of Six Very Large Original Leather Golden Oak Freemason's Armchairs

About the Item

We are delighted to offer this suite of six original Victorian antique oversized, distressed brown leather upholstery golden oak framed Freemason armchairs These chairs are very impressive and important looking. They are made with golden oak frames which are chunky and oversized, the timber patina is glorious, truly stunning, the upholstery is a deep brown or oxblood colour, its hard to tell, it looks to be a mixture of leather and Rexene These by repute came from a Freemasons lodge and were seated by people of some importance, they are not the run of the mill sit around a table and chat chairs, theses are like boardroom chairs for the king! They are very large and beautifully crafted, the timber alone to make these today would cost thousands The upholstery is the original, its very distressed in places but it still exists which is why I have left it, these are a very easy and economic reupholstery project as the seat pads simply pop off, the arms unscrew and the back panels unscrew at the back and drop out, if they don’t sell as they are I will most likely have them done when I have time as there is only a couple of hundred pound of labour here and the finished result will be epic chairs! Dimensions Height:- 95cm Width:- 77.5cm Depth:- 65cm Seat height:- 45cm Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point This item is available for collection from our Pulborough warehouses Condition Please view the very detailed pictures as they form part of the description pertaining to the condition. Please note vintage period and original items such as leather seating will always have natural patina in the form of creasing and wear, we recommend annual 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.
