The classic Victorian style of this arm chair includes claw arm details. This Victorian stacking arm chair is gorgeous! The crest rail along the top of the chair slopes down from its finials.

Its arm chair iteration ends in seat rails similar to the paws of a lion, a common symbol for powerful dynasties.

Library renovations are a core part of our business. Why? Because every good library needs comfortable yet durable seating. What’s better than curling up with a good book in a comfortable chair? Furthermore, libraries are some of the highest use spaces. Chairs with durable joinery is a must. Most cheap wooden chairs are made with less durable joinery. However, those chairs tend to break after only a few years of use. We craft our chairs with steel rods and reinforce them with retrograde epoxy for added stability. In fact, we back our chairs containing Eustis Joints with a 20 year warranty against joint failure. Actually, in most cases, the hardwood will break before the joints do (decades down the line).
