A good example of an antique farmhouse chair dating from the late 19th century. It has a shaped elm seat with curved arms supported by turned spindles. It is high backed with lathe supports and it stands on turned legs joined by a double stretcher.
It is in good original condition and displays well. There are signs of age and use, some marks and light knocks around the legs but nothing detrimental. It has developed a wonderful rich patina and the old stain has worn attractively on the arms and seat. There are some signs of historic worm in one back leg which has all been treated as a precaution and the chair is strong and sturdy. It has been gently cleaned and polished and is ready for use.
The chair stands approximately 42 1/2" (108cm) high and 24 1/2" (62cm) wide. The seat is approximately 19 3/4" (50cm) deep and 18" (46cm) high.
