Description / Expertise
A Wonderful Regency Period Mahogany Chaise Longue
Of Incredibly Rare Small Proportion Having Carved
And Channelled Decoration Standing On Turned
And Fluted Legs
Literature
We believe that it should win object of the year due to the quality, rarity and condition. It gives a different take on the standard chaise longue and is just adorable to look at. Also it has already inspired much discussion as to the reason for its original commission and use and we are ure it will provide a great talking point throughout the competition! It would be great to see a 'traditional' piece of furniture, but with a twist win the competition this time around!
Exhibition History
We believe this piece is significant due to the incredibly unusual proportions. It is wonderful quality and cannot be described as a childs piece of furniture as it is full sitting height. It is the width and depth that are smaller than average and this makes it incredibly elegant. It must have been made in a good workshop as a one off piece possibly for an alcove or a window bay.
Approval Service
If you are interested in an item of our stock, but you are just not sure
whether or not it will look right in that alcove, or whether or not the colour
matches that chest of drawers you already have, then do not fear... we have
vans regularly traveling throughout the UK and are pleased to offer any
prospective clients our approval service. As long as it has been pre-arranged
with ourselves then we will bring the piece to your home and if it
is not as described or looks totally different to how you imagined then we
will take it away again for you, usually for no charge at all (for long distances
we may require a nominal delivery charge).
