This illustration of Miss Havisham by Charles Green (scanned by Phillip V. Allingham) shows an interior of her lavish lifestyle. The candelabras and the large expanse of fabrics are both evident of a person of upper class. The chair she's sitting in can also be compared to the chairs shown earlier in the illustration of Pip's home as well as the photo of a Victorian kitchen. Whereas those chairs had been made of only wood with no decorative aspects, Miss Havisham's chair has armrests and fabric built into it. When talking of chairs, something to keep in mind is how difficult it actually is to design a chair. With lower class families, the only important thing is whether or not it works, but with a higher class of society, a designer must take into account "the needs of the body, mind, and society," (Isenstadt) which would make the chairs far more expensive. A chair like Miss Havisham's (and later Mr. Jaggers') would likely have been cutom made. "They liked plump seats to sit on that were cushioned and covered with fabric. Colours were usually rich, dark and lush," (Regent Antiques).
