A good example of an antique Windsor Bar-Back carver chair dating from the mid to late 19th century. It has a shaped elm seat with curved arms supported by turned spindles. It has a curved back with central turned bar and stands on turned legs joined by a H-stretcher.
The rear of the seat is stamped with the maker's initials J.G
The chair stands approximately 36 1/2" (93cm) high and it is 21 1/4" (54cm) wide across the arms. The seat is 17" (43cm) deep and 17" (43cm) high.
It is in good original condition and is strong and sturdy with no major damages. There are signs of age and use and some marks and light knocks on the seat and around the legs but nothing detrimental. There are some minor signs of historic worm which has all been treated as a precaution and hasn't affected the chair structurally or aesthetically. It has been gently cleaned and polished and is ready for use.
