C.1830 Venetian Restored Grotto Swivel Armchair
We are delighted to offer for sale this super rare and highly collectable, circa 1830 Italian Venetian, fully restored swivel armchair
Please note the delivery fee listed is just a guide, it covers within the M25 only for the UK and local Europe only for international, if you would like an accurate quote please send me your postcode and I’ll provide you with the exact price
What a find! I have never seen another carved with the Dolphin arms like this, its reminiscent of the Pauley CIE Etc Grotto pieces which sell for silly figures. The frame is all walnut, the legs hand carved from top to bottom and in the form of Lion’s paws
This chair has been fully restored, the base has been dismantled and rebuilt to make sure its flat and solid, the leather work is all new including the seat cushion which has Thomas Chippendale style floating buttons, the cushion is feather filled, over stuffed and super comfortable
The chair does swivel but it’s nearly a 200 year old design so its not like a modern day system. There will be normal age and use related patina marks to the timber frame as you would expect
