C1890.

A handsome late 19th century leather wing chair, circa 1890, retaining its original well-worn hand-dyed leather upholstery. With classic scrolled arms, shaped wings, and square front mahogany legs terminating in pad feet, this antique armchair epitomizes the character and comfort of English country house furniture.

 

The leather has aged beautifully with deep patina, craquelure, and historic wear consistent with age and use. One seat corner shows sympathetic patchwork repair, adding to its authentic charm. Generously proportioned, this antique wingback chair offers excellent support and presence—perfect beside a fireplace or in a study, library, or gentleman’s club-style interior.

 

A wonderful example of period seating that balances rugged aesthetic appeal with 19th century craftsmanship.
