A good example of a Windsor chair dating from the mid 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 grain and the hoop and arms are made from Yew wood.
It is in good original condition and is strong and sturdy with no 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 and the legs have lost a little bit of height over the years but nothing untoward and it has developed a wonderful rich patina. It has been gently cleaned and polished and is ready for use.
The chair stands approximately 33 1/2" (85cm) high, the seat is 16" (41cm) deep and 16" (41cm) high and arm to arm the chair is 21" (53cm) wide.
