A Rare Pair of Huanghuali Armchairs

About the Item

These elegantly formed chairs include arched, humpback top-rails supported on eight round posts extending to the back legs, with a matching series of five posts on either side bracing the arms. The arms step down and run parallel to the floor. The feet are joined by stretchers and a shaped foot-rail with a narrow apron. The chair rests on square legs. Due to its age, the original woven cane seat has been worn and removed. The listed item has no seat. Qing Dynasty chairs with the same design have been sold at Bonham’s, and can be seen here and here. In addition, another similar chair can be found in this Australian website. Dimensions 90 x 54 x 43 cm Provenance: Mr. Christopher Jasak (San Diego), purchased from a New York collector in the 1980s.
