About the Item

Early 20th century British Colonial Anglo Indian plantation chair. Made from teak in mortise and tenon joinery with a relaxed lounged frame and long arms. Features a curved crest rail and split reed bent rattan seat. There's nothing better than putting your feet up after a day's backbreaking work. In the 19th century, plantation owners used a specific chair. Called, naturally enough, the planter's chair, the wooden frame had a deep seat and long sloping back made from woven rattan or cane to allow air flow. What really marked it out were the extended armrests which enabled you to sling your legs over them.
