Dear Doc
I suspect rout chairs will have sprung from the practice of having rout parties - Regency period parties (since I've read of them in those books), about which I know no more. But it seems to me likely that at such affairs, they might use a number of chairs which would, over time, seem specialised for that use and acquire the name.
I've done a little looking on this interweb thingy, but can't find any definitions of further pointers, I'm afraid. Anybody else?
