Pair of Chinese Ming Dynasty Style Elmwood Scholar' Armchairs with Rattan Seats

About the Item

A pair of Chinese Ming Dynasty style elm scholar's chairs from the early 20th century, with unusual upper rail, carved panels on the splats, curved arms and rattan seats. Born in China during the early years of the 20th century, each of this pair of antique elm scholar's chairs features a curving back, adorned with a splat carved in low-relief. Each chair is flanked with curving open arms and gooseneck posts resting on a rattan seat. The chairs are raised on four straight legs with arch-shaped apron, the ensemble being strengthened by side stretchers. With their elegant silhouettes and lovely elm patina, these Chinese Ming style scholar's armchairs will be a great decorative addition to any home, perhaps placed in a foyer, living room or office.
