Excellent Pre-Owned Condition.
Note: Chair seat pad is included.
The simplicity and beauty of this quartersawn oak barrel single splat back chair will add a dose of charm and style to any space, from modern to traditional. It was handcrafted from quartersawn oak with a natural wax finish which has developed a beautiful patina highlighting the gorgeous wood grain pattern more intensely. This style of chair originated in the late 19th-century and remained popular well into the early 20th-century. This chair style was also more commonly made with a full spindle-style back, so this cutie’s single splat back makes it kind of extraordinary and special. The winsome design consists of slender outward curved saber legs, three of these legs originate at the top as the chair’s upright stiles. The single back splat also functions as the shoe which connects the seat from the backside. The circular cross stretcher provides stability and structural integrity to the chair and the apron on the lower part of the seat on the front gives it that finished look. This cutie measures 30” x 21½” x 18” H/W/D; seat 18” x 18” W/D; seat-to-floor height 17”; back 13½” x 17¾” H/W; weight approximately 25 lbs. In excellent structural condition with age-appropriate wear. There is a stenciled number on the underside of the seat but other than that, the maker is unknown. Small chairs, for me, have always been somewhat of an accessory piece around our home; you can never have too many. A good one fits into any space! Small or large, in and out of doors, you can move it around from room-to-room, space-to-space, to meet the need of the moment. With its unique profile, this cutie can easily be placed into service in any room, from guest bedroom to child’s room or closet or serve beautifully as a corner chair.
Thanks for looking!
Did You Know?
Quarter sawn lumber, mostly oak, produces its outstanding pattern by cutting across the medullary rays. In a hardwood tree, the vertical grain carries moisture to the leaves but something has to feed the only living layer of the bark, the soft liner called the cambium. The medullary rays, actually horizontal grains, do this. When a log is quarter cut it exposes these rays as flecks or flakes. These flecks are called “tiger’s eyes” or “cat’s eyes” because of the shape. So, all the beautiful oak with all those wonderful flake patterns are the result of a clever method of turning timber into lumber. While all timber, not just oak, can be quarter sawn to produce stable flat boards, only oak produces the magnificent tiger eye pattern. And not all oak trees produce equal patterns. The most distinctive patterns are produced in lumber cut from the oldest, biggest trees that have had hundreds of years to develop the medullary ray system. Younger trees, while they have the rays and can produce the pattern, do not produce the striking examples seen from wood cut a hundred years ago. One last point, lumber cut with most of the grain at 90 degrees to the surface does not cup and warp. It will be a board with a long straight grain pattern on the surface that will remain flat over most of its useful life.
