About the Item

A fine 19th century mahogany music chair, now ideally suited for use as a dressing table chair. The shaped back features a decorative carved lyre splat fitted with brass strings, framed by reeded uprights with carved rope-twist detail and a gently curved top rail. The circular brown leather seat revolves and adjusts in height by means of a substantial threaded wooden mechanism. Raised on four elegant splayed legs united by turned stretchers and a circular central support, the chair has a rich, warm colour and an attractive decorative appearance. Originally designed as a music chair, it would now make a practical and characterful dressing table chair.
