We’re super-pleased with this purchase we made on Thursday. We’ve been on the hunt for a club chair for some time…

…then, not only did we get a club chair, we got two club chairs… and a matching 2-seater sofa!

It’s an original 1930s Art Deco suite, re-upholstered in the 1960s in a tan leatherette. Fantastic shape, comfortable with lovely stud detailing.

And a little extra… the lady who sold it says it was re-covered in the same leatherette as was used for Concorde. We’re trying to track down some old photos from the plane or Concorde airport lounge interior.

Fudge approves – and has made himself very much at home!

It’s found a home in our top floor bedroom/lounge. We spent the entire day re-arranging everything to accommodate it.

It was worth it though… there’ll be many books read in these chairs… cups of tea / glasses of wine drunk, crackling fires watched. We love it already!
