Description
Unusual armchair with ornately carved lion's head front legs over hairy paw feet, featuring a scrolled back crest carved with tassel motifs and simple Queen Anne-style arms. The frame is lacquered in black with remnants of gilding applied to the carved elements. Estimated to date from the Mid-19th Century - possibly older (lacquer and upholstery obstructs view of construction and wood). Dimensions: H 40" x W 26" x D 26" x SH 19" Condition: Lacquer and gilding do not appear to be original. In need of reupholstering; fabric with heavy soiling and a few small tears. One small repaired chip to back of front leg; small repaired split to back leg, possible repairs to arms. Nicks, scuffs, and paint rubs throughout.
