Fine Set Six Regency Rosewood Munro Chairs

19th century
Description

This beautiful SET OF SIX REGENCY ROSEWOOD DINING CHAIRS date from circa 1820. They are stamped C. MUNRO to the frames.

The carving and design of the top rails and central bars is remarkable. There is a fine splay to the back legs.

C. MUNRO is believed to have been a Scottish Cabinet Maker from Edinburgh whose furniture may be found in The Brighton Pavilion, an example of which is The Trafalgar Suite.

The Chairs are in good condition and very comfortable to sit on. The top covers show some fading. Whether they are kept or replaced is a matter of personal choice.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Regency dining chairs, crafted between roughly 1811 and 1830, are characterised by classical Greek and Roman influences, slim proportions, turned legs, and decorative back rails such as scroll, tablet, or carved crestings.

Cabinetmakers primarily utilised rich hardwoods such as rosewood and mahogany, often employing mortise and tenon joinery, carved details, cut brass inlays, and traditional horsehair padded upholstery.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved joinery marks, natural patination on untamed timber underside areas, hand-cut screws, and original weight consistent with solid rosewood or mahogany framing.

Pairing dark timber Regency chairs with contemporary minimalist dining tables creates a tailored, eclectic contrast, while neutral wall backgrounds highlight intricate hand-carved backrails.

Keep timber away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent shrinkage or fading, and apply a high-quality beeswax paste polish periodically along the grain to preserve the wood finish.
