Royal House Antiques are delighted. To offer for sale this original early 17th century Charles I Wainscot armchair. A good early original piece, hand carved, very naïve but at the time this would have been considered very ornate.
The chair has some kind of inlay which I've not seen before, its in the floral back and in geometric lines on the four back planks, some pieces are missing as you can see. Condition wise for the period is sublime, this chair is so tactile, and the patina is to die for, think how many hundreds and maybe thousands of people have used this chair, how many centuries of love and use it took to get looking like this.It is the best part of 380+ years old from new. Height 100cm seat height 44.5cm. Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point, if you would like any additional or specific measurements please ask.
