19th Century cockfighting chair with a concave seat rail and corresponding padded concave back. 

The seat is lower than a dining chair and definitely made with comfort in mind - possibly a nursing chair. 

Great for fireside or a bedroom.  The considered design and quality of construction (and the cuts for missing corner struts) indicate a good maker…
