Offered for sale is an authentic early 1900s American armchair, featuring hand-woven cane panels and a solid oak frame. This piece reflects the transitional design language between Arts & Crafts and Colonial Revival, produced during the first decades of the 20th century.
Construction & Materials:

• Hand-woven cane back and side panels (not modern replacement mesh)
• Scalloped crest rail and carved rosette arm terminals
• Cabriole front legs with stable stance
• Seat cushion professionally reupholstered
• Seat structure reinforced with fitted plywood for longevity and continued use
The reinforcement is a functional preservation measure, commonly seen in antique seating intended for everyday use, and does not detract from the visual integrity of the piece.
This chair retains excellent proportions, strong joinery, and attractive surface character consistent with age and quality manufacture.
