About the Item
A Very Good Quality And Attractive Pair Of 19th Century Mahogany Hall Chairs, By H.Ogden Of Manchester, In The Aesthetic Movement Taste, Having Carved And Moulded Decoration To Pierced Backs, Over Shaped Seats With Unusual Shaped Chamfered Legs To Front And Swept Legs To Back.
Makers Stamp - "H.Ogden, Manchester".
Henry Ogden & Son were cabinet makers and upholsterers in Manchester, 128 Deansgate Manchester from 1862-1882. Alongside Lamb of Manchester and of course Gillows they helped to put Manchester on the map in terms of cabonet making. Its also worth noting that they were silver medal winners at the Paris exhibition of 1878.
The Aesthetic Period, also known as the Aesthetic Movement, primarily took place during the latter half of the 19th century, roughly from 1860 to 1900. It was a movement in Britain that emphasized beauty and artistic expression, rather than simply function.
Originally the purpose of hall chairs was exactly as their name suggests, to sit in the hallway of a house and be used for any guests to take a seat on after arrival whilst waiting for the owner of the house to be ready to receive them. For this reason they nearly always had wooden seats and backs so that any wet and dirty clothes were not likely to soil any expensive, or elaborate, fabric upholstery.
Generally hall chairs are found in many shaped and sizes, constructed throughout both the 18th and 19th centuries to varying degrees of quality and scale, dependent upon whom and where they were being made for.
Very much fit for original purpose and relatively sturdy with very little significant damage, which isn’t always the case with these types of chairs following heavy usage throughout the years, these are a lovely, elegant design of chair which would look absolutely fantastic in a whole variety of different spaces around the home.
As with all items which we offer for sale this pair of chairs have been inspected in our workshops by our traditional antique furniture restorers and received a natural wax polish before being offered for sale, which ensures they are ready to be placed straight into the home.
