Antique 17th Century William & Mary Carved Oak Child's Wainscot Chair Yorks 1690

About the Item

A very charming antique late 17th century William & Mary period carved oak wainscot child's chair, Yorkshire, circa 1690. A darling chair made for a child during the reign of King William & Queen Mary (1689-1702) from Yorkshire, most likely Leeds, the back having a twin scrolled top crest with a central 'pear' shaped finial, to the sides are incised carved 'ear' shaped brackets. The tall back having a deeply carved back panel with a central floral motif flanked with fruiting vines and stylized oak leaves, below is a small Fleur-de-lis design to the base. The seat has been covered with leather sometime in the 19th century, the legs are turned with balusters & blocks and there is a high stretcher allowing the infant to climb ladder like to be seated. Condition is very good, this rare & unusual chair is robust & sturdy and will even support an adult! The chair was acquired from a 17th century country estate on the outskirts of the small quaint city of Ripon in North Yorkshire, which is the third smallest city in England and has its roots dating back to the middle of 7th century.

17th Century William and Mary Period Oak Armchair c. 1690
Located in Heathfield, GB
A beautifully shaped William and Mary oak armchair with well carved horse-bone legs and arm supports, scrolled feet and handsomely carved front stretcher with S scrolls and geometric motif. The tall upholstered back over spiral turned legs and original spiral and bulb turned stretchers. In very good condition for age with some small old dings, some old woodworm, long long dead and a couple of small very old repairs - not affecting structure. The chair is extremely comfortable and solid with a good width between the arms, deep well padded seat and gentle rake to the padded back. Upholstered in a moss green high quality velvet with matching fringed braid in very good condition also. A really beautiful and rather rare early chair of generous proportions all made by hand in c. 1690. The oak has developed an excellent dark and rich colour throughout. A good and honest William and Mary chair...
