Status: Sold

A fantastic mahogany swivel desk or library armchair, upholstered in rouge leather with gilt-tooled foliate borders.. The tall, gently scrolled back and broad seat are trimmed throughout with close-set brass nailheads, with matching upholstered arm pads set on turned and fluted supports terminating in carved hand-form scrolls. The mahogany frame presents a rich, high-polish finish, anchored by a five-splayed pedestal base with molded edges and cast-brass mounts: shell-and-leaf appliqués to the knees and bold paw-form caps at the terminals. The chair is fitted with rolling casters and a visible under-seat lever consistent with a height-adjustable/tilt office mechanism, intended for executive or judge’s-chair use in a study, law office, or library setting. The combination of gilt-tooled leather, nailhead upholstery, and brass-mounted paw feet evokes English Regency and Georgian revival traditions often favored in formal office furnishings. Size: 24 x 21 x 43"
