About the Item

Typical English Balloon Back Chair used for the parlor, a lady's desk, or in the boudoire at a dressing table in mid-Victorian England. It has the round, or balloon shaped back; cabriole front legs with splayed rear legs; and a small crest to the bottom of the back lower rail. It has been re-upholstered in gold fabric; the surface of the chair is in very good condition with all original finish and a lovely mellow patina to the mahogany.. Dimensions: 33 1/4": high x 21" deep x 21" wide Note: I am a second generation antiques dealer and have been in business for 50 years; I am also a member of several prestigious antique associations. Thus, I am well qualified to inspect and evaluate the products I offer for sale and I guarantee this to be authentic and as I have described.
