About the Item
A Beautiful and Curvaceous Antique Giltwood Wingback Armchair in the Late 17th Century Style
This elegant armchair is upholstered in a soft cream fabric and features a generously filled feather cushion for added comfort.
The gracefully scrolled arms are a particularly attractive feature, enhancing the refined silhouette. The chair stands on beautifully aged giltwood legs, connected by an exceptionally decorative serpentine X-stretcher — richly carved and full of character, it adds a sculptural quality to the base of the chair.
While the piece most likely dates to the 18th century, it is crafted in the earlier late 17th century style.
The fabric is in good overall condition, with just a few small marks and no rips or tears. The giltwood and gesso legs show wear consistent with age; notably, the front right leg has a loss to the decorative carving at the knee as per the photos.
We believe these signs of age only add to its authentic country house charm.

Regency Furniture.
During the Regency period it was fashionable to copy the classical furniture of the Roman and Greek times. Furniture had stopped evolving in design and had moved back to classical forms. The Pioneer designers who represented this period were:
Thomas Hope (1770-1831), George Smith (1804-28), Henry Holland (1745-1806)c
George IV had a major influence over the furniture makers of the time.
This period saw the introduction of brass to wood from the previous marquetry that had been originally used. The sofa table was also introduced.
