Antique Hepplewhite Style Mahogany Bergère Armchair
Formerly the Property of Clonliffe College Seminary, Dublin
A distinguished antique Hepplewhite-style mahogany armchair, dating from circa 1910 and bearing the added interest of having formerly belonged to Clonliffe College Seminary, Dublin. Elegantly crafted, the chair features a beautifully shaped oval leather upholstered back with decorative brass stud detailing, complemented by a finely woven bergère cane seat.
The graceful swept arms and tapering legs reflect the refined proportions associated with the Hepplewhite revival style, while the combination of leather, cane, and mahogany provides both comfort and timeless sophistication. Equally suited to a study, library, hallway, bedroom, or reception room, this characterful chair offers an appealing blend of provenance, craftsmanship, and practicality.
A rare opportunity to acquire a piece with a direct connection to one of Dublin's most notable historic institutions.
