Chaises longues and daybeds
The antique pieces we are going to talk today are the antique chaises longues and daybeds.
The regency period saw the introduction of the chaise longue, a fully upholstered chair with an elongated seat and inclined back and arms.
They were sometimes made in mirror image pairs, with headrests at opposite ends, but are now mostly found as single examples. The frames of Victorian antique chaises longues were often elaborately carved.
