A fine example of an antique English ladderback armchair, dating from the 19th century and crafted from a combination of quality hardwoods such as ash and elm.

This regional chair, with features typical of the Lancashire area of England, combines rustic charm with sturdy, traditional craftsmanship.

Features a high, five-rung back with characteristic "wavy" shaped horizontal slats (ladders) set between turned vertical supports.

Equipped with a durable and authentic hand-woven rush seat, which is in good order, showing age-related wear consistent with its history

The frame showcases lovely turned front legs that terminate in a traditional pad foot, and a single turned H-stretcher for exceptional stability.

The ash and elm wood has developed a rich, warm patina over time, highlighting the natural grain and adding to its antique appeal.

A strong and solid piece suitable as a characterful accent chair in a hallway, bedroom, or as a functional carver/elbow chair.

The chair is in good, solid condition, with general age and wear as expected from a genuine antique item.

All joints are sound and stable, ready for everyday use. Please review the photographs for a full assessment of its condition and unique character.
