Description

A fantastic pair of antique carved mahogany side chairs. They were made in continental Europe, possibly Denmark, or somewhere close and they are quite early, dating from around the 1790-1820 period, or even earlier.

The quality is outstanding, they have gorgeous and intricate carving depicting eagles heads on the backs, the legs are also beautifully carved.

We have had them re-polished and re-upholstered in a cream cotton fabric, retaining the original horse hair stuffing. The condition is excellent for their age.

Please check & enlarge all the images, especially the stunning carved eagles heads, which in themselves are a work of art, plus the reeding & other carved details.

Regency furniture, popular in the early 19th century, draws heavily from classical Greek, Roman, and Egyptian motifs, characterised by sabre legs, carved details, and dark woods like mahogany.

These chairs were predominantly crafted from dense tropical hardwoods such as solid mahogany or rosewood, often featuring hand-carved ornamentation and traditional joinery methods like mortise and tenon.

Authenticity is identified through hand-cut joinery, the presence of oxidation and patina consistent with age, tool marks from hand-carving, and the weight and grain structure of old-growth mahogany.

Mixing period seating with modern minimalist tables creates a balanced interior, allowing historical craftsmanship to contrast effectively against clean, neutral architectural backdrops.

Maintain antique wooden pieces by keeping them away from direct sunlight and heat sources, applying occasional microcrystalline wax, and avoiding modern silicone-based polishes.
