A lovely oak library chair dating from the late 19th Century. It is a good comfortable chair and very well made with a cane seat. It has an attractive shape with a curving back supported by nicely shaped splats with two scrolling arms. It stands on turned legs. It makes a lovely desk chair but would also be a nice library or hall chair.
It is approximately 32 3/4" (83cm) high and the arms are 24" (61cm) wide. The seat is 19" (49cm) deep and approximately 16 1/2" (42cm) high.
It is in very good condition for its age. It has developed a lovely aged patina with a rich colour and is structurally very sound. There are signs of age and use and it is not without a few small marks here and there but nothing detrimental or untoward. There has been a small repair to the rear splat but it is strong and sturdy. The cane is in good order and the chair has been gently cleaned and polished and is ready for use.
