Antique Prayer Chair with Stunning Embroidered Barn Owl Design

When furniture becomes art! This antique prayer chair, or prie-dieu, has been carefully restored and re-upholstered in a rich, dark green velvet. It has beautiful bobbin legs in mahogany, with all of the original brass castors.

I love to blend my traditional upholstery skills with textile art to create unique pieces of furniture. This original design has been been brought to life using applique, machine and hand embroidery, and  fabric paint.

At the heart of this design is a stunning white barn owl, captured mid-flight under the glow of a full moon, as it swoops down toward a tiny mouse nestled among the delicate blooms of cow parsley. This enchanting scene, makes the chair a true conversation starter and a eye catching statement piece.

Perfect for those who appreciate the finer details and the fusion of art with functionality, this one-of-a-kind chair adds a touch of elegance and storytelling to any space. Whether placed in a cosy reading nook, a bedroom or a hallway, or even as a focal point in your living room, this chair is more than just furniture—it’s a unique piece of art that brings character and charm to your home.
