Etsy - RiverSpaVintage George Walton Glasgow School Of Arts & Crafts Arm Chair, Throne Needlepoint Bergere Art Nouveau Antique Fireside Chair
Description
A simply astounding & highly unusual antique Arts & Crafts throne-style armchair in beautiful condition. With extremely strong similarities to George Walton & the Glasgow School of the Arts & Crafts design movement, this truly is a design wonder. Though not officially accredited to Walton as yet, we believe this to be either a stunning example of his work or, due to the sublime craftsmanship, by one of his contemporary Glasgow School master craftsmen, probably made in the late 1890s. It features a stunning & very unusual two-part elongated arch shaped back with beautiful bergere weave, wonderfully impressive & unusually shaped throne-like arms, beautifully curved front & back legs (particularly in the style of Walton), & a gorgeous, colourful & spacious needlepoint seat in stunning condition. This really is an astoundingly special chair in beautiful condition - one that demands you take notice of it & just say 'WOW!' We haven't seen another like this despite searching for a long time & it's very unlikely we'll find another, so grab this sublime & possibly unique piece of design history while you can. If it gets officially attributed to Walton, which it could well be in the future, it will be several times more expensive! CONDITION Structurally sound & in beautiful condition, the only slight wear is a very small area of fraying to the lower middle of the bergere back, which is barely noticeable. Apart from that & a few odd minor marks, it’s in absolutely excellent condition for a chair well over 100 years old - please see the photos.
