English Arts & Crafts “Quaint” Rush Seated Armchair

About the Item

A stylish English Arts and Crafts 'quaint' beech and fruitwood rush-seated armchair, with waved and pierced design splat. Probably made in High Wycombe. Circa 1900. *Free delivery for all areas in mainland England & Wales only. Delivery to room of choice by a two person team. Items are left packed. Return costs are met by the buyer. The chair has the original finish which has been lightly waxed. It is in very good condition, showing some wear on the finish as expected. It has no damage or woodworm. All of the joints are tight. Due to the design there is some slight movement, but the chair is very usable. The rush seating is good. There are a few strands with loss to the front, but this is minimal, please refer to the photographs. The term 'quaint' was commonly used to describe some art furniture designs in Britain and America that were popular in the late 19th to early 20th century. Additional dimensions information: The seat width inside the arms is 46cm at the front.
