Pair of oak armchairs in the style of Liberty and Co. with heart cut-outs backs
£950 / set
The pair of armchairs in oak of Arts and Crafts (1880–1910) design, c.1910, British. Each chair has a rectangular back with a small heart cut-out to the crest rail, open arms on square uprights, and an upholstered seat over straight legs that run into sled-style feet.
Construction is expressed through simple rectilinear members and slatted backs, with gently shaped arm terminals and crisp shoulders. The decorative vocabulary is restrained, relying on the pierced heart motif and proportion.
