In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the 18th Century.
It has a thick saddle shaped seat with a flat front and the chair stands on four simple legs joined by a H-stretcher.
For the style and age of this chair it is well made and fairly solid. There is some slight movement in the arms but nothing untoward or unexpected. It will not tolerate heavy daily use well but can be sat in and is a wonderfully sculptural piece.
It has a fabulous patina. There are various old repairs and signs of historic woodworm which has all been treated as a precaution and at some point some of the holes have been filled. Judging by the wear to the top half of the chair it is a possibility that the legs have been replaced at some point in its life but this will have been done some time ago and they do not look out of place. A fantastic rare survivor. The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully.
