The handsome throne-like seat, gothic pinnacled, cusped and crocketed in the Victorian antiquarian style of the 1840s, has colourful floral needlework upholstery that reflects contemporary enthusiasm for Berlin woolwork, as popularised by the 'decorative draughtsman' Henry Wood's Eighteen Plates for Berlin Woolwork. Related chair patterns were published in E. A. Fleischmann, Kunst-und Gewerbe-Blatt, Munich, 1843.
