Vintage Oak Pressback Armchair – Carved High Back

Description : This vintage oak armchair features a detailed carved pressback design with turned spindles, shaped arms, and a solid wood seat. The high back showcases ornate scrollwork, while the turned legs and stretchers provide stability and traditional character. The chair has visible wear consistent with age and use, and it is missing one leg support spindle, which affects structural completeness and places it in a project-ready category. Ideal for restoration, refinishing, or repurposing in a rustic or traditional setting. Price: $65
