Late 20th Century Fully Restored Hand-Dyed Cigar Brown Leather Chesterfield Tufted Porters Armchair

"A truly spectacular and rare late Victorian style, fully restored Chesterfield cigar brown leather porter's armchair. This traditional canopy-top porter's chair is a magnificent statement piece, masterfully hand-dyed and antiqued. Originally designed in the old days to keep the night watchman or porter shielded from cold drafts, today it serves as an imposing and important signature armchair for luxury interiors. The premium leather has been washed back, hand-dyed six times, sealed, and waxed down to achieve an exceptional, rich depth of color and patina. Featuring deep tufted buttoning, traditional Chesterfield rolling arms, and the iconic protective canopy frame, this is arguably one of the finest examples of a porter's chair available today.
