Holland and Sons Low Library Armchair c. 1880 Holland and Sons  Low Library Armchair c 1880 %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
A beautiful 19th century library armchair with a long low seat with tick shape to the side rail and well shaped buttoned back. The right hand rear leg stamped with the registration number 01329.

This model registration number is for Holland and Sons, the eminent 19th century makers of fine quality chairs and this chair retains the original brass and beaded casters on fluted and turned legs to front and raked back legs with original casters also. The arm supports are fluted and turned also.

The casters are stamped Clarke and Timmins a company with its origins in Birmingham in the 1760s and as well regarded for casters and locks as Cope & Collison. In 1897 the two companies merged and in 1910 the company changed its name to Cope & Timmins London Ltd.

Casters made by this firm are found on fine quality chairs made by Holland & Sons, Gillow and Howard & Sons.

The chair is upholstered in a thick dusky plum velvet which is in good condition throughout with no tears or noticeable wear or marks. The chair is extremely comfortable and robust.
This is a beautiful example, very original and in good order with only minor marks and dings consistent with age and careful use. There are a couple of old worm holes – long dead and not visible - on inner face of the supports where they meet the fabric. The inner face of the seat rail beneath the upholstery will generally also be stamped ‘Holland’ or ‘Holland and Sons’
A superb quality, beautiful and comfortable long low chair
