An ornate walnut armchair features a high backrest and seat of dark, distressed leather held by oversized metal studs. Faded gold filigree patterns decorate the leather and a panel beneath the seat. Green fringe drapes from the base of the backrest and the seat frame. Gilded, carved finials cap the top corners. The straight armrests rest on turned posts, while the legs connect to flat wooden runners on the floor.
