A Campaign Metamorphic Armchair and Daybed

Origin: England Period: 1860 - 1880

A rare and wonderful military officer’s steel and iron campaign armchair c. 1860-1880.

This great looking armchair folds practically flat and compact for the ease of transportation.

It opens easily and quickly into either an armchair, with a reclining backrest which can be set in two different positions, or an armchair with a footrest or, further still, it can be extended flat to make a solid and sturdy bed.

Originally this chair would have been supplied with a thin horsehair mattress.

The chair is finished with turned ebonised front legs which have steel rods running through the middle that connects to the castors.

A truly versatile piece of campaign furniture from the 19th century.

We can see this great foldable chair/daybed finished off with three loose buttoned leather upholstered cushions and arm rests in a mustard or a brown colour.

Chair Size 70cm x 78cm x 103cm
