18th Century Chinese Chippendale Mahogany Gainsborough Library Armchair
Located in Lymington, GB
A good Chippendale-period mahogany Gainsborough library armchair, circa 1760.
This is a lovely example of an early-George III Gainsborough armchair in the sophisticated Chinese taste of the period.
With well-executed blind-fret carving to the square legs and arm supports.
Note the unusual treatment of the gently-outswept padded arms. Furthermore there is subtle shaping to the top of the back.
The 'H' stretcher with pierced Gothick (or 'Gothic') carving.
Professionally upholstered to a high standard and overstuffed in a neutral soft velvet, with float buttons and close nailed. Raised on old brass castors.
Lovely, rich, old colour and patina. In excellent condition with a sturdy frame throughout.
These Georgian library armchairs are sometimes also known as Martha Washington chairs...

Burr Walnut Brown Leather Regency Metamorphic Reading Armchair to Library Steps
Located in GB
We are delighted to offer for sale this pair of large and collectable Regency style metamorphic armchair which converts into Library steps after the original 18th century design by Gillows of Lancaster with Burr Walnut panels
A very good looking and well made pair, I have never seen a Regency style piece with Burr Walnut panels before, the leather seat pads have been restored by my leather polishers, they have been hand dyed six times, antiqued and sealed
The period 1800-1825 was a great one for ‘patent’ or ‘metamorphic’ furniture This chair, which transforms into a short set of steps for use with bookshelves, is close to a design for a ‘Library Chair’ published in Rudolph Ackermann’s Repository of the Arts in July 1811, which was made by the London firm of Morgan and Saunders, of Catherine Street, Strand.
They were well known for their ingenious furniture, including reading chairs with writing surfaces attached and a great variety of travelling beds...
