A Sophisticated Early 18th Century English George I Period Walnut Wing Chair Circa 1720.
 
This fabulous, rare, original chair, with its high back and delicately outscrolling arm supports, epitomises the elegance of the furniture of George I period. The bowed seat extends beyond the arms, showing that this was a chair made by an experienced maker and designed with comfort in mind.
