English reclining library chair (circa 1860)

A fine Victorian reclining library chair, dating from around 1860. The chair features a turned mahogany frame that supports a fully adjustable backrest and a slide-out footrest for optimal comfort. Recently reupholstered in a grey-brown fabric, the seat, arm pads, and footrest combine the timeless character of the solid wooden frame with fresh, modern upholstery. The mahogany frame shows light wear consistent with age and use, adding to its authentic antique charm. A beautiful and functional 19th-century piece — ideal for a library, study, or classic interior setting.
