Item Details

Antique country house day bed armchair.


An almost neoclassical scrolling silhouette with sweeping curves undulating in ergonomic bliss. A generous and comfortable seat perfect for reading a book or indeed lounging around.


With the original sumptuous button-backed golden marigold velvet.


Raised on turned wooden legs with brass and ceramic castors.


One of the back legs is stamped with the circular markers mark for Cornelius V Smith. The castors are also stamped with a slightly illegible maker's name but are potentially by Cope & Collinson.


Dating from the Victorian period, circa 1880s-1890s in date.


It is in good vintage order and is sturdy, comfortable and still very usable. The old velvet is worn in a couple of places, chiefly near where your feet would be positioned as well as on the back panel. A couple of the buttons are missing and some feel slightly loose but are still attached. One of the castors is a replacement but it is an antique example and a good match.


Approximate measurements 166cm long x 73cm wide x 77cm high. The seat height undulates between 34 and 37cm.
