Raffia Arm Chair with Woven Tub Back
This lot is a raffia arm chair with a deep, rounded woven back and enclosed arms, offered as a single seat. It suits a conservatory, sitting room or garden room where a lightweight, characterful chair is required.
The chair has a tub-style silhouette, with the back and arms curving continuously into the seat. The body is worked in an even, close weave with a decorative diamond pattern detailed at the centre of the back. It stands on four short, turned legs and has a sturdy, practical form. No maker’s name or label is visible.
Condition and Collectability
The weave appears intact across the back, arms and seat, and no obvious breaks are evident. Light surface marks consistent with age and use are to be expected. A lot ticket is attached to one arm. Buyers should inspect the piece in person before bidding.
As an unbranded example of woven seating in a classic tub form, the chair will appeal to buyers seeking a simple, traditional piece for a period-style interior or a practical addition to a relaxed living space.
