About the Item

A good quality early 19th century simulated rosewood Regency period library armchair having elegant scrolling Arms over X framed end supports with carved decoration, Ormolu mounts and replaced brass castors (This elegant design of chair is typical regency design and  offers great comfort in combination with a real elegance and classy look. That is a combination which can often be hard to  find during regency times, as often there is a trade off between comfort and style. It is in excellent condition and has been  recently reupholstered. The replaced brass castors are in the identical style to what the original would have been. It is  constructed from 'simulated rosewood' which could also be described as 'faux rosewood', which means that it is  actually beech, or a similar wood, which was stained at the  point of construction to make it look like the item has been constructed from the hugely more expensive solid rosewood. Again this is a fairly common technique of the time)  Circa 1825 Measures: Height - 37in Width - 23in Depth - 34in Seat Height - 18in.

There are a few different theories as to where the term carver chair originates, but we rather like the simple one of a carver chair always being at the head and foot of the table and therefore occupied by the carver of the meat. Whichever way you look at it carver chairs are normally bolder, slightly larger and generally just more impressive than a normal dining chair. Of course these days carver chairs can be used be used in many places around the home, as desk chairs, bedroom chairs or even spare hall chairs, as opposed to just being used around the dining table.
