18th Century English Stickback Windsor Armchair

About the Item

This exquisite 18th-century English stickback Windsor armchair is a testament to the timeless craftsmanship of the period. Its robust structure, crafted from elm, showcases a thick single-plank saddle-seat that contours gracefully to provide comfort and support. The seat is masterfully supported by elegantly turned legs, connected by an H stretcher, ensuring both stability and durability. What sets this chair apart is its remarkable two-layered paintwork; the chair's original green paint lurks beneath a 19th-century dark red overlay, creating a captivating crackled surface that is nothing short of a visual feast. This patina, developed over centuries, tells a story of age, elegance, and the chair's journey through time. This armchair is not merely a piece of furniture but a piece of history, representing one of the finest examples of 18th-century Windsor chairs discovered in recent times. Its aesthetic appeal and historical value make it a coveted treasure for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
