English Early 19th Century Matched Pair of Spindleback Armchairs in Elm
About the Item
English early 19th century matched pair of spindleback armchairs in elm with rush seats. These hand turned armchairs are from the Lancashire or Cheshire districts of England. Most often these are used as armchairs for a set of dining chairs, but they can just as easily be used as a pair of comfortable chairs with a small table between them in another room in the home. English chairs with rush seats were made to have a loose cushion added to the seat, generally an inch to an inch and a half in depth and often tied to the back uprights. This not only makes for more comfort, but also prolongs the life of the rush greatly. Circa 1800-40.
