Empire Leather Campaign Chair - Rhoorkie
Named for the town in India that made it, "The Rhoorkie" was a popular
choice for high-ranking British officers who enjoyed a lifestyle "under canvas" that
allowed the transportation of luxuriously appointed furnishings, designed to
travel well and serve their owners in the style to which they were
accustomed. Despite their substantial and stylish appearance, the
pieces were cleverly designed to quickly break down and re-assemble without
the use of nails or tools, in time for afternoon tea or an evening "encamp".
The solid functionality of these clever pieces lends itself well to modern
interiors. Classic proportions and elegant, distressed finishes add a
lived-in, comfortable statement of character that will express the owner's
reference to history and confidence in good style. Slightly flexible,
the chair is designed to sit well, even on uneven ground. The original
would have been made with teak wood, which is now endangered. This one
is handmade using hardwood maple with a rich patina finish and brass
hardware. Cushions are black suede hide trimmed with natural leather
piping.
