About this item
This is an antique, bow-back chair, sometimes referred to as a 'Smoker's' or 'Captain's' chair. An English, Victorian, elm, Windsor piece from the 19th Century. Attractive deep, rich tones to the elm with a desirable aged patina. Displaying good grain detail in the saddle seat slab. Standing upon stout baluster legs united by a double 'H' stretcher.
Ring turned spindles rise obliquely supporting the horseshoe armrest. Terminating in out-turned scrolled hand grips. The back crowned with a generous scroll back for added comfort and support. Stamped with the craftsman's initials 'J.W' to the back of the seat.
A very good example offering a comfortable seat. Solid joints and construction, delivered waxed, polished and ready for the home.
