About the Item
We are delighted to offer for sale this rare fully restored circa 1860 Show framed Chesterfield tufted hand dyed brown leather library reading chair.
This chair is really quite exquisite, its what’s called a show frame, cabinet makers would craft ornately decorated chairs like this to take to exhibitions, the idea being they were so beautiful they would capture the attention of passing customers who would then commission pieces to be made with elements of this design.
The frame is solid mahogany, the leather lovely thick English hide, the chair is finished with the original porcelain castors.
The chair has been fully restored to include having the leather washed back, it’s then been hand dyed six times, antiqued and sealed, the mahogany frame has been stripped back and French polished from the ground up.
