Discovered in an antiques fair in Nantes, France this fabulous salon chair has been covered in a Victorian Lady's, black velvet, riding jacket. The original buttons run down the centre of the back rest. The seat is made from a vintage gold and black, narrow stripe lining, edged with black velvet. The whole chair has been double piped.
Now for a surprise, when you turn the chair around the strap, that would have fixed the riding jacket to a skirt, has been attached to the backrest and inside it has the Lady's name - Miss Anne - written on it. The strap is held together with its original, tiny hook and eye. The chair frame has been in a matt taupe coloured paint from a range bought in Paris. It is beautifully ornate with a centre post at the back. This chair has a history that is evident the minute you cast an eye over it. Measurements: 192 cm High x 47cm Wideh x 45cm Wide
