The Empire is one of our most dramatic designs and its sumptuous curving arms make a clear allusion to furniture styling from an age of affluent gentility. It features reversible seat and supportive back cushions with a high yet graceful camel-back profile.

It can take up to eight hours to carve the detailed shape and relief work of the scrolling fascias of the arms. They are complemented by a hand carved rail and solid wood front legs which are finished beautifully with brass castors.
