Victorian Mahogany Armchair — Newly Upholstered in Contemporary Velvet
£850
A superb Victorian mahogany armchair, circa late 19th century, featuring beautifully carved scroll arms and cabriole legs terminating in pad feet. The frame retains its original rich patina and elegant proportions, typical of the high‑quality craftsmanship of the period. This piece has been newly upholstered in a luxurious contemporary velvet fabric, combining traditional form with modern design. The fabric depicts a vibrant, whimsical scene of elephants, zebras, birds, and hot‑air balloons among tropical foliage and florals — a bold, artistic contrast to the deep polished mahogany frame. The result is a striking fusion of Victorian elegance and modern creativity, making it a perfect statement chair for both period and eclectic interiors. Condition: Excellent — solid frame, newly upholstered, ready for use. Dimensions: Approx. 95 cm high × 80 cm wide × 90 cm deep. Origin: English, c. 1880.
