Classic 30's armchair - Desperately needs new home!

[Mike1973]

Faded, thread bare, and a few splits...

I love it to bits, but there is no longer any room for it in or humble abode...

Free to a good home. Anyone fancy a restoration project? If not it'll have to go to armchair heaven... :eusa_booh

How much?

I'm interested.

Yep, afraid so... I reckon theres a few people out there who would love to re-home this old chair, but geography is the deciding factor :eusa_doh:

Hi Mike,

We're in two minds. We love the shape of the chair, it's exactly what we'll be buying when we buy a house next year. But would have it re-upholstered (don't think much of the current pattern). And we have no space. And no way of getting the thing to London.

Other than those minor details we'd have it in a shot. :cry:

Slightly off topic, but check out these guys down in Brighton -

Baron, I know exactly where you're coming from... Got a pair of these 10 years ago from a local tip, £5 each. Since then they've never really fitted in our little '20's terrace house, usually shoehorned in a corner but never looking 'right'. Really belong in a bigger '30's semi or detached. Desperately holding on to the better of the two even though it looks a little out of place...

 

[Edward]

Hope you find a home for it.... I just don't have the space either, alas.

 

[Eyemo]

Is it still available?..

 

[Mike1973]

Is it still available?..

Yep. Not sure for how long though... I was sat in it this morning waking up with a cup of tea and a good book, but it's plonked right in the middle of an already small room! Having to shuffle around it is obviously starting to get a bit tiresome! lol
Where abouts in Wales are you?

When I get home tonight I'll take better pictures of the wear and tear. It's structurally sound, but needs upholstering to be presentable.

Cheers for the PM Eyemo. It's telling me you need to clear your inbox out before I can reply though! :eusa_doh:

 

[Eyemo]
