With truly exceptional hand-carving of acanthus, scrolls, and foliage and a warm, rich mahogany finish you won't find elsewhere, this Toscano-exclusive chair is in a class all its own!

Arrived in a beat up box that was not tall enough for the chair packaged up inside in a separate box. Tge wood looks nice, however there are spots on the seat cushion as well as a long pulled thread that is very noticeable from every angle. The back of the still is not sturdy - could have been tossed around in the box while shipped. Worse experience trying to get this chair returned - it came damaged so I don’t think I need to pay the $89 return shipping label on top of shelling money for miles of rake to keep its box together! My designated Wayfair Account rep is useless and wants me to open the box AGAIN to take photos of damage AGAIN to sent to her. She must not be doing well since she has gone far and beyond to make herself scarcely available to be reached by phone or through email, Kimberly is the rep’s name and each of her emails start with “I was very busy blah blah blah” She refused to honor shipping in a damaged dude table as well saying it’s a variation in the wood. Well, I work with wood everyday Kimberly and white damage salt deposits from possible water damage or moisture are surely no variation in wood. Wayfair beware - Kimberly is the reason you are losing your long time loyal customers. The shift in customer service towards rude, condescending, unhelpful staff may save you from a few returns here and there but in the long run coupled with your drop ship business model where you can’t quality control the product or the way it’s packaged for shipping by the companies listing on your site - will mean no repeat clients.. Honest Opinion. USA. Mon Nov 24 2025

We can't remember if we were first attracted by the tastefully detailed hand-carving or the tobacco-colored faux leather stretched on the dark mahogany, comfortable frame of this wing chair. Whatever the reason, we've continued to admire the detailing-Victorian curves finished front and back with braided trim and hand-carved legs. You'd usually expect to find this much deep-seated comfort only in the library of a mid-19th-century English country home.

With the renewed interest in historical furniture for today's home, this 500-year-old replica antique chair features richly ornate Latin phrases hand carved into its arms and back. This traditional ''faldstool'' is hand carved of solid mahogany with complex pegged joints with no nails or glue. Truly a work of medieval art!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Glastonbury chair is a nineteenth-century term for an earlier wooden chair, usually made of oak, possibly based on a chair made for Richard Whiting, the last Abbot of Glastonbury, England. This 500-year-old solid mahogany replica antique chair features richly ornate Latin phrases hand carved into its arms and back. The Glastonbury chair was thought to exist since the Early Middle Ages, but seems to have disappeared from use in part of the Later Middle Ages; it re-emerged in use in Italy by the fifteenth century AD. Design Toscano calls this a ''faldstool'' The chair does not fold. Although it is frequently assumed to do so, especially when made with circular tenons, triangular frames remain rigid even if they are joined by bearings. Like the originals, the tenons are tusked with complex pegged joints with no nails or glue. So, while it arrives assembled, it may be quickly partially dismantled for moving.. Randle Conrad. Westminster, Co, United States. Fri Oct 06 2017

Using a design drawn from the pattern books brought to India by the romantic wayfarers, these antique replicas are recreated in solid mahogany and finished in a shabby elegance plantation blue as perfectly timeless as its classic design. On a three season porch, beneath a covered portico or awning, a pair of these Design Toscano exclusive chairs creates an oasis for rest reminiscent of days gone by.
