About the Item
An Early 1900's American Morris chair frame, featuring a tall ladder-back design with adjustable reclining mechanism, sculpted arms, and turned rope-twist spindles along the sides. Rooted in the Arts & Crafts movement yet rendered with a rustic, handmade quality, this piece embodies the functional elegance and honest construction typical of early American interpretations of the Morris chair.
The frame showcases a graceful silhouette with gently curved arms, scalloped apron, and cabriole legs—elements that blend the sturdy ethos of Mission-style furniture with touches of vernacular craftsmanship and French provincial flair. The open slat back adjusts via wooden pegs to multiple reclining angles, and the seat was originally designed to accommodate a separate cushion.
Crafted from solid wood and rich in natural patina, the chair is offered as a frame—ideal for restoration or custom upholstery. A rare find that bridges Arts & Crafts principles with a distinctive regional character, this chair makes a beautiful statement in refined rustic, lodge, or eclectic interiors.
