19th Century Swiss-German Black Forest Antler Horn Throne Chair

About the Item

A very unusual throne chair or armchair made in the Black Forest region of south-west Germany bordering Switzerland. The horns from elk/moose, antler and goat are intertwined to create the structure and the legs. Dating to the latter part of the 19th century, this chair is exquisitely detailed and exemplify the superb craftsmanship of antler horn furniture of the period. Elegant and chic, it would look fantastic in any English country home or hunting lodge, as fashionable and quirky today as it was 150 years ago. CONDITION In Good Condition - A very small tear to the fabric about 1.5cm long near the right hand armrest. In our opinion not worth removing all the original reupholstery for such a small tear, please refer to photographs. Chair is structurally sound and otherwise in fantastic original condition.
