About the Item

A near pair of Qing Dynasty period yoke high back chairs from the 19th century, with carved aprons and side stretchers. This near pair of Qing Dynasty period yoke high back chairs from the 19th century captivates with their graceful silhouettes and intricate details. Each chair, showcasing slightly different dimensions, is crowned by a tall back topped with a gently curving rail. The central section features a concave-shaped splat, lending a soft contrast to the more defined, convex lines of the lateral supports. Below, the rectangular wooden seat rests on four straight legs, their sturdiness accentuated by a carved scrolling apron at the front and side stretchers that add both strength and a visual connection between the legs. The delicate interplay of shapes in the upper section, combined with the warm patina of the wood, bestows a timeless charm on these chairs, making them a perfect addition to any room. Placed in a bedroom, they can serve as elegant accent pieces flanking a dresser or standing on either side of a window. In a foyer, they can provide a welcoming touch, their high backs drawing the eye upward while offering a functional seat. This near pair of 19th century Qing Dynasty yoke high back chairs is a testament to classic Chinese craftsmanship, bringing a refined touch of history and sophistication to any interior.
