Scope note
Armchairs that are stuffed or have a loose cushion to support the back, and wooden legs and a slide-out frame in the front upon which to rest the feet. In many versions, the slide may extend to full length so that the occupant may recline. Popular in the late-18th- and early-19th-centuries, the name refers to the chairs having been common in hunting lodges.
