Pair of Regency Painted Armchairs

About the Item

A charming pair of painted open armchairs dating back to the English Regency era, exquisitely hand-painted to simulate exotic timber and ornamented with neoclassical festive ribbons and garlands, with Greek key (meander) border to seat rails. THREE PAIRS of matching side chairs are currently available too. England, circa 1800-1810 Why we like them Elegant and refined, the design of these elbow chairs reflects the late Georgian fashion for lightweight and slender furniture, inspired by the findings at the archaeological excavations in Italy, popularised by the British designer Thomas Sheraton and the architects Adam brothers before him. Very pretty chairs, comfortable, nicely drawn and well proportioned, these chairs will suit a traditional as well as an eclectic interior and will look even prettier with tastefully made squab cushions. Condition Sturdy and usable as they are, they will benefit from re-caning the seats, which is included in the asking price and will take about 3-4 weeks to complete. The decoration had been refreshed at some point in the past. Both chairs are in remarkable condition for their age but have signs of age and use, as expected of genuine antique pieces.
