20th Century Leather Club Chair

Lovely 20th Century French leather club chair with a velvet cushion.

Club chairs were immersed in interior décor both in France and England since their conception in the early 20th Century.

In both countries, they were firm fixtures in gentleman's clubs but were eventually used in a more widespread sense by both males and females.

England and France influenced each other's models, with the French chairs becoming less rounded and more well proportioned over decades. 

This chair is wonderfully deep-seated and was originally called the 'fauteuil comfortable,' or comfortable armchair. 

With original leather and studding.
