Code: 0008
A very nicely shaped and good quality antique button back armchair for re-covering, circa 1870, the iron framed back over a serpentine shaped seat and moulded show-wood front stretcher with central carved detailing, upon carved and shaped front supports and original brass castors.
This type of iron framed back is usually a sign of quality - the iron frame giving a certain amount of spring to the back making it extremely comfortable.
Obviously the chair if for re-covering but no remedial work necessary. The springs and horse-hair stuffing are good with no lumps or bumps to the seat.
88cm high, the seat is 65cm wide at the front, 57cm deep and 36cm high.
