About the Item

Stunning vintage Ming style yoke back black lacquered low chair with square brass sabots in the style of James Mont. Re-upholstered in El Morocco Espresso fabric by Scalamandre. Gorgeous condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear. We have noticed some nicks and dings and scratches in the lacquer finish, but they do not detract from the overall beauty. Please see photos and zoom in for details. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, Mid-Century-1970’s. They say “Life is better in black & white…” in this case, it sure is!! Take another look at this outstanding vintage Ming style low yoke back chair in the style of James Mont! Its frame is comprised of hardwood finished in a sultry black lacquer and it has a wide square seat base with brass details on the front edges, straight square legs with brass sabot feet, and a gorgeous yoke back with a center back splat featuring a keyhole design… it’s STUNNING!! And we haven’t even talked about THIS FABRIC yet!! Prior to our obtaining this beauty it had been re-upholstered in this GORGEOUS El Morocco Espresso Zebra pattern fabric by Scalamandre! It is exotic and will look exquisite as a side or accent chair in a chinoiserie, Asian or Hollywood Regency setting. It would be awesome in your bedroom or sitting room next to a side table but it’s bold enough to stand on its own in any room. This chair is sure to make a statement whatever location you choose. If you love this magnificent yoke back low chair half as much as we do, it’s as simple as black and white…you need to make it yours!

4 Hollywood Regency Chinese Chippendale Style Black Accent Chairs by Thomasville
By Thomasville
Located in Topeka, KS
Fabulous vintage Hollywood Regency Chinoiserie Chinese Chippendale style Thomasville black low profile accent occasional chairs, set of 4. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, all 4 chairs have natural, distressed edges from age & wear which we have enhanced giving them a gorgeous patinated look then added a fresh coat of lacquer. A couple of small holes in the vinyl have been repaired. They can be used as is, but most will want to reupholster. They are priced accordingly. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa 1971. You know, 1971 was a VERY good year… There were 3 partial solar eclipses AND there were TWO total lunar eclipses in the SAME year!!… The FIRST EVER Starbucks opened at the historic Pike Place Market in Seattle, Washington… A movie ticket only cost $1.50… Oh ya… AND it’s the year I was BORN!! (Hmmmmm, those eclipses may explain a few things in my life!) LOL…Anyway, how privileged am I to share a birthday with these MARVELOUS occasional chairs by Thomasville!!! This is a set of four incredible Thomasville low profile occasional chairs in the style of James Mont covered in a deep black faux ebony finish bearing a naturally distressed all-over patina on their frames. They have wide, square seats wearing lovely black vinyl or faux leather fabric that is nice enough to use for a while but eventually you may want to reupholster. Just think of the limitless fabric possibilities!!! They feature beautifully carved Asian detailed backs and straight square legs with a wide and sturdy stance. The front legs have a slightly turned in foot, but no rounded hoof look so not quite the Ming style, but we might say a hint or bit of flair. They are definitely bursting with styles of Hollywood Regency, Chinoiserie, and Chinese Chippendale magnificence and are sure to be a favorite new addition to your home! They are too low for use at a standard dining table; however, if you have a low profile Asian Chabudai (Japanese short-legged table,) or a low-profile game table, these would be a perfect fit!! Otherwise, you could certainly use them as extra seating in your living or family room or split them up and use two in the corner of your bedroom and two in the sitting room or study across from your fireplace. They are very versatile, composed of solid frames, and they bear an unmatchable and timeless Thomasville reputation!! They are EXACTLY what the designer ordered! The original Thomasville furniture company was founded in 1904. At the time, it was called the Thomasville chair company since the company focused on producing chairs exclusively. Over the next few decades, the catalog expanded to include additional furniture pieces. During this time, the original company went through several owners; despite this, the company still experienced financial success even through economic hardship of the 1930s. Vintage pieces from the Thomasville Furniture company run the gamut from chairs to dining room furniture and many different types of furniture in between. The earliest pieces from the company, when it was still known as the Thomasville Chair Company, are considered the most rare and valuable. If you are looking for authentic Thomasville vintage pieces, you will need to find them on the secondhand market. Thomasville Furniture is one of the most recognized furniture companies in America. You can count on Thomasville furniture for incredible dining room and bedroom furniture. – vintage furniture...
