Full Description
A handsome set of four English Regency Revival library chairs featuring deeply tufted brown leather upholstery, carved hardwood arms with scroll detail, turned and fluted legs, and original working casters.
Each chair presents with classic barrel-back form and generous proportions, offering both comfort and architectural presence. The leather displays a rich, warm patina consistent with age, with attractive tonal variation and natural character throughout. The carved arm scrolls and turned legs add a refined traditional elegance, while the brass nailhead trim frames the upholstery beautifully.
These chairs are substantial in scale and well suited for a formal library, study, executive office, or traditional seating arrangement around a cocktail table. Sold as a set of four.

Why We Love It
We love the depth of the diamond tufting, the rich leather patina, and the grounded stance created by the turned legs and original casters. This is the kind of seating that instantly elevates a room and carries that timeless "gentleman's library" presence. Sold together, they create a dramatic and cohesive statement.

Condition Report
Very good vintage condition overall.
The leather remains supple with attractive age-appropriate patina and light surface wear consistent with use. All chairs retain their original casters and nailhead trim.
One chair shows minor wear across the front edge and a small tear approximately 1 inch in length located along the seam where the seat cushion meets the side panel. The tear is discreet and not visually prominent due to its placement along the seam but has been noted for accuracy.
Wood frames are structurally sound with minor finish wear consistent with age. No significant structural issues observed.
