A good example of a Windsor chair dating from the mid to late 19th century. It has a low hooped back enclosing tapering spindles and a pierced back splat. It stands on turned legs joined by a crinoline stretcher. It has a superb shaped elm seat with a wonderful knotty grain.
The chair stands approximately 36" (91cm) high, the seat is 15 1/2" (39cm) deep and 17 1/4" (44cm) high and arm to arm the chair is 21 1/2" (55cm).
It is in good original condition and is strong and sturdy with no signs of worm or any major damages. There are signs of age and use and some light marks on the seat and around the legs but nothing detrimental. There are a few minor old repairs but nothing untoward and it has developed a wonderful rich patina. It has been gently cleaned and polished and is ready for use.
