The pierced spindle filled back and sides with short outswept arms are above a moulded saddle shaped seat and supported on cabriole legs joined by stretchers and terminating in pad feet. The chair is stamped to the underside with chair maker's initials G.E. The chairs is 61.5cm wide, the seat is 55cm wide at the widest point and 39cm wide at the narrowest point with an overall depth of 43.5cm.
