18th Century Museum-Quality Reading Chair

An extraordinary and rare 18th century reading chair, steeped in history and designed with both intellect and leisure in mind. This unique heirloom piece—passed down through generations—was created for the refined purpose of sitting backwards to comfortably read or write, with thoughtful features to enhance the experience. A true collector’s treasure, comparable to the example displayed at The Rosenbach Museum in Philadelphia.

Features:
-Authentic 18th century heirloom with rich provenance
-Distressed green leather upholstery with nail-head trim
-Unique backward-seating design for reading or study
-Slide-out ashtray and cupholder on each side
-Built-in wooden book rest at the back
-Sturdy solid frame in excellent condition (no wobbling)
-Elegant cabriole legs with warm patina
-Distressed leather finish showcasing character and age
-Dimensions: 24.5”W × 25”D (with extended wood rest) × 34”H

This one-of-a-kind piece is not only functional but also a conversation-worthy artifact, perfect for collectors of fine antiques, historic furniture enthusiasts, or design connoisseurs who appreciate rare statement pieces.
