This beautiful example of the original “Lusty” Slipper Chair is the perfect seat for taking a sneaky moment to do nothing and contemplate life.

The chair has previously been repainted in a glossy, chocolatey brown, with the Queen Anne legs left in their original, unpainted, varnished wood finish.  The sprung seat has been cleaned, refurbished and tastefully reupholstered using the fabulous Bayeux Bisque fabric from Warwick’s Legacy Tapestry collection which perfectly complements the rich chocolatey finish of the chair. Traditional materials, including hessian and coconut fibre, have been used to refurbish the sprung seat. 

The paintwork is entirely presentable in its current state, although as a vintage piece it does show some signs of wear on close inspection.   As it has long been accepted practice for Lloyd Loom owners to repaint their pieces to match their décor and taste, helpful painting tips are provided on some of the Lloyd Loom sites.

The fragile Lloyd Loom paper labels and date stamps (notorious for falling off or being painted over) are missing which makes it difficult to pinpoint an exact date of production.  Furniture created pre-1931 often featured no date stamp at all so it is possible this chair, which features the more rare and stylish Queen Anne legs and solid bentwood frame construction, could be an example from the 1920s or early 30s.

This is, however, unmistakably a Lloyd Loom original and has passed the magnet test!

Please inspect the photos carefully as they form an important part of the overall description of this item.  I am happy to provide additional photos or video on request.
