What are the typical features of Antique Arm Chairs?
These wood antique arm chairs can be ornate or they can be simple. Some are upholstered, others are decorated with wood carvings or nailhead trim. Others have plain backs, perhaps of the ladder type, and straight legs. One ornate chair in dark wood is a replica of a medieval one.

Made from wood in a dark color for the back, leg and seat, its arms are light in color, making a contrast that is pleasing to the eye. Its right armrest has a large, curved surface for writing. Tucked under it is a drawer for keeping writing instruments and papers.

The top section is a pillow back. that like the padded armrests pictures ancient Egyptians. Each armrest sits on a wood carving of the Sphinx.
