Mid-20th Century English Open Arm Chair












Mid-20th Century English Open Arm Chair
A proper English armchair with a not-so-proper attitude. This mid-20th century open-arm beauty nods to Howard & Sons in all the right ways—turned front legs on brass casters, square back legs (also on wheels, because even elegance should roll with it), and that signature British blend of structure and ease. The tight back wears a sharp striped linen, tailored like a waistcoat with a heavy rolled top that feels more Savile Row than sitting room. The seat and arms are wrapped in orange leather that delivers a jolt—warm, punchy, unapologetic—and trimmed in antiqued brass nail heads for just the right amount of gleam. Once the calling card of the British country house, this chair has traveled well. It now speaks fluent California casual, urban eclectic, or Parisian nonchalance. Park it next to a fireplace, a bathtub, or your best stack of art books. It’s heritage with a wink—and seriously good bones.
