I sold these to good customers twenty years ago.
They are now moving and need to sell.
I’m always happy to re sell rare items I’ve handled over the past three decades, as they’re so hard to find.

We just finished restoring this fantastic set of 19th century English Country Regency dining chairs.
A customer purchased them not realising that many users ago, someone had drilled holes through every leg and seat rail, tying a coat hanger style metal brace.
Once removed, not easily, they were a complete mess!
Eddie took each chair apart and rebuilt them. We cleaned back, filled the holes, disguised the repairs and refinished them.
Cut back and waxed today and ready to deliver.
I thought I’d share the process with you.
Note: still to be reupholstered.
With a freshly Colefax check upholstered drop in seat.
Mixing antiques from different parts of the world can work very well. Not all styles mix well, but 18th and 19th century English and French furniture mixed very well.
Six from a harlequin set of eight, last quarter 18th century English elm country Hepplewhite dining chairs, with a handsome first quarter 19th century French figured elm, two plank farmhouse table.
Absolutely beautiful. Classic lines with unequalled style, well that’s my opinion.
Note: The chairs appear more red in the photos
