Description: Fantastic walnut American made Victorian armchair. The frame
features fabulous three dimensional intricate carvings of a stag being
brought down by two dogs and two children with arrows and spears. Notice
two more dogs emerging from the top of the arm rests! The arm fronts have
lion heads and end in well defined carved claw feet. We had this chair
reupholstered with a pleated skirt. This chair was obviously made by a very
skilled carver. The back reminds us of pieces made by Alexander Roux, NYC
while the front and legs would indicate George Henkels, Philadelphia.
Whichever one made the chair it is a work of art!
