A 16th CENTURY OAK WAINSCOT CHAIR DATED 1539

About the Item

An absolutely stunning example of an early oak Wainscot chair, the carved foliate and scroll top rail above a paneled back, centered with an incised lozenge, initialed and dated ‘P D 1539’, over the board seat upon turned baluster front legs and plain rear legs united by peripheral cross stretchers. We don't know the relevance of the date seeing the chair was probably made in the later part of the 16th century. It is interesting to note that King Henry VIII was on the throne during the date on this chair. This was acquired by “The Englishman’s Antiques” from the “Tushingham Hall Collection” which is located in Whitchurch near Cheshire, England. This is a unique opportunity to own a piece of history from one of Britain’s most notable listed country houses, whose Tudor revival façade hides behind it a home steeped in history. The hall itself has been in the same family ownership for more than two centuries, passing from the ownership of the Kenyon family to the Vawdrey family via the female line and on to the Moore Duttons.
