The Bicentenary Furniture Collection

What finer way to celebrate the Bicentenary than with these superb hand-crafted pieces made exclusively for Remember Nelson by a small group of traditional Norfolk furniture makers.

The Trafalgar Suite

The range includes The Trafalgar Suite - a stunning collection of sofas and chairs made exclusively for Remember Nelson by Rococo Upholstery.


 

The suite is upholstered in a magnificent 'Nelson' fabric, exclusively manufactured for Remember Nelson and believed to be the first Nelson fabric since 1906.

Each sofa is decorated with traditional acorn finials turned from oak. But these are no ordinary acorns, for the oak has come from HMS 'Victory' herself, reclaimed from her restoration in Portsmouth.

Additional embellishment comes in the form of hand-made tassles with Turks-head knots.

  The stunning fabric design, by David Williams, incorporates HMS 'Victory', Britannia, 'England Expects...', elements of Nelson's coat of Arms, his famous oak leaf border and of course an image of Nelson himself.

Manufactured to order, The Trafalgar Suite is available in a variety of colours (Navy, Red, Pale Green and Cream) and configurations (3-seater, 2.5-seater, 2-seater sofas, armchair, footstool and cushions).

   
 

Each sofa or armchair comes complete with 2 cushions, and these are available to purchase separately to make a magnificent addition to any suite.

Large size Panel Cushions are also available. These include a panel depicting the Battle of Trafalgar and are available in the same colour range as above.

The Trafalgar Suite is an exceptional opportunity to 'Remember Nelson' in a practical and wholly unique way. Each suite is made to order and is certain to demand attention wherever it is situated.

Nelson's Writing Chair


 

For the Nelson devotee, or anyone with a fascination for the history of Nelson, HMS 'Victory' or Trafalgar, this extraordinary chair is a 'must-have' piece.

Crafted in Norfolk by Rococo exclusively for Remember Nelson, Nelson's Writing Chair has a unique historical pedigree.

Some years ago, when Nelson's original chair on board HMS 'Victory' was judged to be beyond repair, one of Rococo's craftsmen was invited to produce an exact replica which now stands in pride of place in Nelson's cabin on 'Victory'.Who better, then, to lend his skill and craftsmanship to this new edition?

Created to the exact dimensions from those original drawings, the only difference is in the material used to upholster the chair. Instead of the brown leather of the original, we have chosen the exclusive Nelson fabric used elsewhere in this collection.

The chair has large pockets on either side, originally designed to 'file' Nelson's incoming and outgoing letters but now equally useful for TV remote controls, newspapers or magazines!

Issued in a limited edition of just 200, each chair will be accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity. Early reservation is recommended to avoid disappointment.

(Please note - the original dimensions of this chair mean that it is a little small by today's standards. If you would prefer to have a chair which is wider than the original, we would be happy to accommodate you! Please contact us for more information.)

Nelson's Writing Chair
Height - 35" Width - 22" Depth - 38.5"
Price: £2495
Delivery: Please allow 10 - 12 weeks for manufacture and upholstery

To order, please call 0044 (0)1603 813131 or email: sales@remembernelson.com


The Burnham Chair


 

Elegant, comfortable and a talking point without equal, The Burnham Chair has already been awarded glowing tributes from all who have seen it.

Taken from a traditional EastAnglian design, The Burnham Chair is named after Nelson's birthplace and is crafted in burr oak and yew by Williams & Robinson in their Norfolk workshop.

Each Burnham Chair contains 3 unique links to Nelson and Trafalgar; links which add to the prestige and long-term value of these exquisite chairs.

* The back panel of the chair is made from oak recovered from HMS Victory during her refitting.

* Inserted in this panel is a sterling silver medal bearing a cameo portrait of Nelson. The medal is made from a special refining of silver (Victory Silver) which includes a small percentage of copper recovered from HMS Victory.

* The third link is the most obvious, yet the most poignant. The words 'Remember Nelson' carved into the chair back serve as a constant reminder of Captain Sir William Hoste's flag signal at the Battle of Lissa in 1811. His simple message 'Remember Nelson' inspired his men to an overwhelming victory against the French.

The Burnham Chair
Height - 37.5" Width - 18.5" Depth - 14.5"
Price: £1795
Delivery: Please allow 6 - 8 weeks for manufacture

The Admiralty Chair


 

This extraordinary chair is a triumph of design flair drawn from the artist's interpretation of the shapes and rigging of HMS Victory and even incorporating original oak from HMS Victory.

Its remarkable fish-bone spine reflects the shape of the ribs which form the elegant internal shape of 'Victory', while the chair back reflects her rigging.

Made by John Barnard in his Norfolk studio, The Admiralty Chair is John's tribute to Nelson; truly a seat fit for an Admiral.

The Admiralty Chair
Height - 84" Width - 30" Depth - 36"
Price: £3500
Delivery: Please allow 6 - 8 weeks for manufacture

Please note, The Admiralty Chair is part of John Barnard's 'Victory Suite' which includes a magnificent dining/boardroom table. for more information about the complete Victory Suite, please email info@remembernelson.com, putting 'Victory Suite' as your subject line.
