A cross between a Chinese horseshoe armchair and a more modern western design, this chair is the perfect complement to our Cross-Legged Desk. The S shaped legs are repeated here and meet with a subtly curved seat with rattan inlay. The spindles supporting the curved backrest are more western than Chinese, but the middle of the central support is carved with a ‘ruyi’ – a medallion shaped Chinese symbol of prosperity, while at the top is a beautiful lotus flower – another auspicious symbol bringing long life, luck and wealth.
Part of our Classical Chinese furniture range, handcrafted from reclaimed elm wood and available in a choice of warm elm, light elm or black lacquer. Other finishes and sizes can be made to order. Love this item? Add it to mydeco.
