#7258 • Traditional Wingback Armchair with Carved Ball-and-Claw Feet, Tapestry-Style Upholstery, 49"
Part of Historic Manor Downsizing Auction (timed auction by Prime Auction Solutions)
Status: Sold
A traditional wingback upholstered armchair, executed in a classic “fireside” form with a deep, sheltering back, pronounced wings, and scrolling arms. The chair is covered in a richly patterned, tapestry-style textile featuring stylized foliate medallions in burgundy, rose, olive, and gold tones, the repeat aligned across the back, arms, and seat for a tailored presentation. The frame appears to be hardwood, raised on carved cabriole legs terminating in ball-and-claw feet, with additional carving at the knees—details associated with Georgian- and Chippendale-inspired revival furnishings. The seat is fitted with a loose cushion, while the tight back and shaped wings emphasize the enveloping silhouette intended for comfort near a hearth or reading lamp. A sewn-in law label visible in the images references a delivery date of 1992, consistent with later traditional upholstery production. Suitable for use as an accent chair in a library, living room, or bedroom, where its bold textile and carved feet read as the principal decorative statements. Size: 28" x 38" x 49"
