Description:
This in an attractive antique English Victorian walnut office chair, upholstered in burgundy red leather, circa 1880, in good condition. The Victorian walnut office chair is designed with an elegant curved, buttoned & padded leather backrest, above a single tier of finely turned spindles, flanked by spandrels, united by two reeded frames. The frame curves round to form wraparound arms, supported by larger decorative etched spindle supports at the front of each arm. The Victorian walnut office chair has been upholstered at some point in the past with a burgundy red leather, finished with hand-tacked brass studs to the perimeter. The stuff-over sprung seat is comfortable to sit on and is decorated with brass studwork to its perimeter on a moulded bow front rail, flanked by symmetrical scribe carvings to the frieze. The Victorian walnut office chair stands on sturdy ring turned legs to the front, with splayed block legs to the rear, terminating on its original castors on the front legs, with wooden button pads to the rear.
The walnut office chair displays a rich brown walnut colour. As it boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning they have received.
This Victorian desk chair would look superb in a variety of rooms in the home or office; especially the home office or study, as it is so comfortable. This item would certainly grace any home. So don’t miss out your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.

Once you have purchased an item, we will contact you by email and/or telephone and provide you with a provisional delivery date, in order for you to confirm if it is suitable for you. Once you have confirmed you can accept delivery on the provisional delivery date, we will book the delivery in with our shippers and it then becomes a confirmed delivery date.
We will also provide you with our shippers’ contact details, in case you need to contact the driver on the day of delivery. It’s helpful if you can provide us with both the landline and mobile telephone number, in case the driver cannot reach you on one of the numbers on the day of delivery, they can contact you on your alternative number.
