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

My new favorite summer sandal!
Size: 8.5, Color: Bay Fog
I am loving these shoes so far this summer! The color is so cute, perfect for a light summer palette. It's the perfect light purple that doesn't make me look pale or washed out. For reference, I have fair to light neutral skin tone. They are SO comfortable - a little too comfortable for a shoe, it's more comfortable than my ugg slippers! They do take a second to put on as you have to either force your ankle in without unstrapping the back - don't judge me - or undo them. Thankfully they have a strap to help get them on easily. I love these shoes. I am a medium width, but I think these have some wiggle room since both the straps are velcro and adjustable somewhat. They are easy to walk in, hold onto the foot, have been more balanced than some others I have had in this platform style, and are very cushioned to walk in. Slight arch support to me but I have somewhat high arches so if you are more flat footed or standard arch these will give you even better support. Really impressed with these. They are more casual but work with many different outfits from sundresses to jeans. For me, these were a great buy and I will be wearing them all summer.

Style, Comfort
Size: 9, Color: Sand
If I could give a Ten Star review, I would. Hands down the most comfortable pair of sandals I have ever owned. I wore them 16 days straight while touring Italy. Comfortable and goes with all of your outfits. They pack well in a suitcase too. Light weight.

Wonderful
Super comfy and easy on and off, yet stylish imo! I could walk miles in these as a 56 yo and have worn them for three years! I hope they never stop making them. The only tweek I would suggest is to cover the footbed with leather or suede not cloth so they would last longer!
