A high standard of craftsmanship is in evidence in this chair illustrated in the 1920-1921 trade catalogue produced by the Springfield Chair Co to advertise products made at their factory in Millerfield Road, Dalmarnock. The high specification of the materials and the intricate designs in the woodwork and tapestry would ensure a high value for the chair nowadays.
