Arm Chair Circa 1900

An octagonal seat and sweeping barrel back announce this hand-carved armchair's Moorish origins before you've taken a step closer. Interlacing arabesques and horseshoe arch motifs — hallmarks of the Islamic decorative tradition that flourished across North Africa and Spain — cover every panel of the apron and crest rail in deeply relief-carved wood that has only grown richer over more than a century of age. Crafted circa 1900, this one-of-a-kind antique chair reflects the artisan woodworking traditions that traveled the Mediterranean trade routes and left their mark on Spanish Colonial design throughout the Americas. The low, enveloping profile and solid wood construction speak to a time when furniture was built to endure generations, not seasons.
