Product description
This is an antique highback chair re-upholstered with original handmade Turkish Kelim at the rug store we bought it from. So it’s one of a kind.
This big prominent chair that was the perfect centerpiece of my old apartment in Budapest which had a dark library and personal museum of my world travels. This piece is not a natural complement to a Scandinavian design interior. Unfortunately the photos were taken at my new-building apt. in Amsterdam and not it's natual aesthetic setting.
The seat padding and springs are original, as is all the carved woodwork. The seams along the arms are stitched with dark red silk braiding to conceal and accent.
It’s a chair I am not thrilled to part with, but it no longer fits with me here. So it’s time to help it find a new home where it belongs.
Please don’t bother with lowball offers, I’m not in a great hurry to sell so only earnest offers will be considered.
I can possibly deliver this chair in the Benelux + region
The fabric is in good shape. But the carved woodwork on the front feet are scratched showing their age. In the photos it looks like a large chip is missing from carved left front foot, but it merely fell off and can be reattached easily. If the buyer prefers it as-is, fine. But I will offer to repair the left foot, stain the wood so it's a consistent color, and reapply new felt padding on the botttoms of the feet because they're getting thin by now. All free of charge, as this chair could use a touch-up anyways. Just please request that in advance of a visit.
