About the Item

This is a late 19th century Clerk's Estate High Chair as used at a Clerk's Desk in the late Victorian period, circa 1880, now very useful as a kitchen chair at a breakfast bar. The chair is made of beech with a shaped elm seat and a nicely curved back having a solid central vertical splat. The tall legs are connected by six rectangular stretchers with pegged mortise and tenon joints which makes the chair very strong. This chair could be used at a high desk as intended or as a tall chair at a breakfast bar in a kitchen setting or simply as an individual display chair in any area of the home or office. The chair has a good mellow color.

Mid Victorian Side Chair Finely Hand Carved with Wool Work Seat, Circa 1850

Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire

This is a very good quality example of an English occasional side chair in the Rococo style, from the mid Victorian period, circa 1850, made from Beech. The back is a Classic balloon back shape, but with intricate cut-out and carved detail to the frame and particularly to the cross splat. This carved detail is continued on the front legs and front stretcher. The foot of the legs are splayed slightly outwards which adds to the features of this chair. Twin side stretchers give additional strength to this chair but overall this is a delicately made chair. It has a good wool-work covered seat with a rose spray design. Please note: This chair is not a strong dining room chair and is not recommended for regular use as a chair to sit on. The chair is light and would make a very pretty bedroom or hall side chair, to be used principally for display either on its own or with say teddy bears displayed on it, or for draping light...

George 111 Mahogany Chippendale Dining Chair Reupholstered, Circa 1760

By Thomas Chippendale

Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire

This is a superb hardwood walnut or mahogany, Chippendale back, side or dining chair which we date to the mid 18th century, George 111rd period, circa 1760. The chair has a very well carved "Chippendale" back splat consisting of vertical interconnected ribbons with good detail. The top rail has a serpentine crest with central crisply carved detail with an acorn motif and well formed & carved ears with rosettes. The pegged and jointed legs are square with an inside chamfer back and front and the front legs are flute molded to match the side rails, with dovetailed "H" cross-stretchers. It has a drop-in seat which has been newly upholstered and webbed but could easily be upholstered in a fabric of choice. The proportion of this chair is excellent with very good width and a good rake to the backs and rear legs. The hardwood has developed a beautiful mellow colour and patina with age and polishing over the years. Overall a fine quality, English Georgian dining chair.
