Verdure tapestry covers the high arched back, the seat and the padded arms, a dense layer of acanthus leaves and branches in moss, ochre and soft rust, edged all round with a close line of brass nailheads. The carved frame has a shell and scroll apron, cabriole legs on small scrolled toes, and arms that curl into volutes, their ends worn smooth and tracked with old worm holes. The tapestry dates to the late 1800s, and the frame is older, from the 17th century. Big enough to sink into by a fire, and handsome from behind too, since the back is upholstered to match.
