Hand crafted in England, circa 1840-1860
Bow back arm chairs, with nicely turned legs. Nicely shaped seats with through tenoned legs, and turned front arm supports. Probably were used in a Pub or a county house.
Size: 20 1/2” wide, 17”deep, 37” tall, 17” seat height.
Provenance: These chairs passed through the shop of Law, Foulsham, & Cole Ltd. Dealers in Antiques, 7 South Molton St. London. Marked with a white plasticine tag. They were open form 1905-1936. The tag is probably from the 1920's
Condition: One chair has an old repair to the hoop back, near to where it meets the mid rail. Lots of old patina, and use and wear marks. The chairs are very solid, and definitely useable. We are going to have our professional furniture repair guy look at the break.
