A 19th century Gothic Revival reclining armchair designed by Charles Bevan c1870. A solid walnut frame, X shaped supports with inlaid stylised design to the upper arm, pegged joints and stands on two front brass casters. Newly and fully upholstered professionally, with the filling being feathers rather than foam, and completed in the traditional way of pockets to enable the feather filling to retrain its shape, and covered in a new brown leather. The sliding brass reclining mechanism works as it should.
In very good original condition, no loose joints.

Our stock items are carefully selected by myself and I only buy good quality items which may need small repairs, a clean and a polish. I don't buy any items that need major restoration, but any loose joints are re-glued. Occasionally, some items may have small amounts of historic extinct woodworm, never enough to affect the integrity of the item, and is always treated as a matter of course. We try to describe and show our items the best we can, and we use studio lighting which sometimes lightens the colour slightly on some of the furniture. All lamps are rewired and PAT tested. Every item we sell we would have in our home (some of them have been!!) It is impossible to describe every item fully, so please feel free to email or call for more information or any queries you may have. The items will have no major defects but will show signs of normal age related wear and use. I would prefer the items to show its life rather than strip it and re-polish it, as it's only original once!
