With grapevine upholstery and comfortable long down filled cushion.
Surprisingly comfortable.
I can see in a barristers or drs waiting room. Very smart indeed.
I purchased this rare pair of 18th century English Georgian side chairs from another dealer recently.
Such a beautiful style that will never date.
Very well leather upholstered many years ago, single piped and studded, see below, hand tacked (no staples) shows exceptional tradesman.
One from a rare collection of unusual late 19th century lithographs dedicated to the palm family.
Finished by hand in watercolour.
“Calamus”
50cm x 34cm unframed.
Framed 75 x 68cm
First time I’ve framed two together,
usually singular or three. Nice for a change.
“Agrimony & Jasmine”
Elizabeth Blackwell.
A Curious Herbal.
The three plank cleated top (later hinged – originally sliding)
Above canted bin, with original leaf and moulded carving.
Resting on a shaped, moulded skirt with a carved central star, joined to front cabriole legs.
Still to be re-glued, and re wax finished.
Or left un waxed, as beautifully oxidised over the centuries.
