A fine, untouched (except me giving it a light wax polish) example of the famous Sussex armchair, as made famous by the likes of William Morris, Liberty's, Heals, the Arts and Crafts movement, Aesthetic movement, etc.

The design of the 'Sussex' armchair is attributed to Philip Speakman Webb (born 1831 - died 1915) and went into production at Morris and Co. from 1865.

It's a traditional Sussex stick-construction chair made from turned and steam-bent beech wood, with original rush seating.

This example has a wonderful worn patina and some fine details. For example, the flared ends and extra detailed turning to the arms, the bobbin-like spindles in the backrest, the neat, turned button finials that top the back legs. And notice the classic Sussex design where the bottom of the arm supports pierce the stretcher underneath.

Here are a couple of links worth looking at for more information on Sussex chairs:


 

No splits, no old or current woodworm, no wobbles, some individual lengths of the rush have broken and come away - see photo (but still very useable, especially with a nice cushion).

DIMENSIONS:
Height to top of back: 91.5cm
Height to seat: 43cm
Seat width at widest point: 48cm
Seat front to back: 45cm

Great shelves
Size: 24 Inch, Color: White
Easy to assemble and comes with everything you need for drywall or wood. Nice color and texture and comes with stickers to hide the holes underneath. I bought two sets of three. These are very long, so I recommend just using two at a time.

Great quality
Color: Rustic Brwon, Size: 16in
Hassle but they work great. I love the color, the thickness and quality. They do have some weight but in my opinion, I prefer that. Right now the four shelves are holding up my WiFi routers and remotes. Will buy again

Good quality shelves
Color: Walnut, Size: 24in, Color: Walnut, Size: 24in
These shelves are gorgeous in person. Yes, they're darker than the listing pics, but I actually prefer it. The grain is beautiful, they came well-packed, and mounting them was no trouble at all. Now I've got display space that feels both stylish and practical. Definitely worth it!

Easy to install, very tough!
Color: White, Size: 16in, Color: White, Size: 16in
Seriously, scoring these shelf stands for $30 feels like an absolute steal! Four chunky wood boards with metal T-brackets that actually feel substantial - way sturdier than those flimsy IKEA ones I used to have. My old cheapo stands warped after half a year, but these hold up like a champ - I've got like 15 heavy textbooks stacked on them right now. Love the little details too: rounded edges so you won't scrape your hands, and rubber grip strips on the bottom. They look legit fancy in my living room as bookshelves and even class up my kitchen herb garden. My friend thought they were some high-end designer furniture! Honestly, the craftsmanship at this price puts my old $60 wooden shelves to shame. Already told my DIY group chat about these - trust me, you can't go wrong!
