About the Item

This upholstered Knowle-style armchair features a tailored silhouette with a high back, sloping arms, and comfortable cushioning. The Knowle form has English origins that date to the seventeenth century, when hinged-arm settle chairs were designed to keep out drafts. Modern interpretations retain the distinctive profile while updating comfort and upholstery. This example blends traditional structure with contemporary craftsmanship, making it suitable for living rooms, libraries, or reading spaces. Wear consistent with age and use. 30"w x 26"d x 42.25"h. Seat: 19"w x 20"d x 20"h.
