This listing is for a pair. There are three pairs available (set of six). A charming pair of English green painted and intricately decorated 'ribbon-back' chairs. Why we like them Their delicate and unusual shape, with boldly splayed back legs and intricate backs, alluding to 'The Sun King' Louis XIV, together with the rare, sumptuous green 'japanning', emblematic of the early neoclassical era in English interior design, make these superbly decorative chairs very attractive and desirable. This model with its distinct wheel-backs is very similar to a set of cartouche wheel-back chairs photographed by Edwin Smith in ‘The Balcony Room’ at Dyrham Park, Gloucestershire, in 1971. In 1774, Thomas Chippendale supplied 'green and white japanned' ‘Star back’ chairs for Paxton House, Scotland (C. Gilbert, The Life and Work of Thomas Chippendale, London, 1978, vol. II, p. 271 and fig. 164). Henry Hill of Marlborough also used a similar pattern for chairs supplied to Thomas Mansel at Penrice Castle, Glamorgan, in 1778 (illustrated Lucy Wood, The Upholstered Furniture in the Lady Lever Art Gallery, Volume II, Singapore, 2008, p. 628, fig. 394). Although displaying similarities with a number of other fine examples, a firm attribution for this pattern remains elusive and requires further research. A set of twelve...
