The English upholstered armchair took its familiar shape in the nineteenth century, when springs and stuffing made deep comfort affordable and every parlour wanted a chair to sink back into. Turned front legs and backward-sweeping rear legs became part of its standard vocabulary.
This chair has both. The front legs are turned on a lathe into rounded profiles, while the back legs are sabre style, curving backwards like a cavalry sword. The arms roll gently outward, the back rises high enough to rest the head, and every edge is finished with French piping, a fine cord sewn into the seams to sharpen the line. The upholstery is a textured slub weave, a fabric with small irregular thickenings in the yarn, over foam padding.
It is at home in a sitting room, a bedroom or a landing with a window. Give it a side table, a reading lamp and a cup of tea, and it will be used every day.
