Regency Library Armchair

About the Item

A good quality early 19th century simulated rosewood Regency period library armchair having elegant scrolling Arms over X framed end supports with carved decoration, Ormolu mounts and replaced brass castors (This elegant design of chair is typical regency design and  offers great comfort in combination with a real elegance and classy look. That is a combination which can often be hard to  find during regency times, as often there is a trade off between comfort and style. It is in excellent condition and has been  recently reupholstered. The replaced brass castors are in the identical style to what the original would have been. It is  constructed from 'simulated rosewood' which could also be described as 'faux rosewood', which means that it is  actually beech, or a similar wood, which was stained at the  point of construction to make it look like the item has been constructed from the hugely more expensive solid rosewood. Again this is a fairly common technique of the time)  Circa 1825 Measures: Height - 37in Width - 23in Depth - 34in Seat Height - 18in.
