Fine Pair of Queen Anne Walnut Chairs by Charles Tozer

1900 - 1920
Description

A superb pair of antique walnut chairs circa 1900-1920 in the Queen Anne taste by W Charles Tozer of 25 Brook Street, London W1.

Tozer furniture is still highly desirable as the company were arguably the finest cabinetmakers specialising in the early Georgian and Queen Anne walnut revival furniture from this period.

The chairs have a shaped and scrolled walnut back splat with shepherds crook shaped arms and drop-in seats.

The handsome carved walnut cabriole legs are joined at the front with a carved Carolinian stretcher and two further turned stretchers to the rear legs.

As these are now well over 100 years old the pair have a wonderful rich, golden colour and antique.patina.

The delightful aspect to these chairs is their total originality, even retaining their original fine hand stitched needlepoint floral covers which are in very tasteful colours and are in excellent order.

Tozer’s makers label is attached to the underside of the frame.

The chairs are a beautiful example of Charles Tozer work, excellent quality, good timber and veneers used with excellent design and proportions. It is easy to see why he was recognised as one of finest cabinetmakers in his field.

The chairs measure 104 cms in height 52 cms wide by 52 cms deep overall.

The seats are at a height of 45 cms from the floor.

UK delivery can be arranged with our trusted furniture courier and costs £60 plus vat to most destinations.

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.

Queen Anne chairs, popularised during the early 18th century in England, are characterised by graceful curved lines, vasiform back splats, and cabriole legs. The style reflects a shift toward refined comfort and lighter forms compared to earlier William and Mary designs.

Walnut was the predominant timber used during the Queen Anne period, often featuring figured or burr veneers. Construction typically involved hand-cut dovetails, mortise and tenon joints, and drop-in upholstered seats covered in needlework or leather.

Authentic period pieces display hand-carved details, natural timber shrinkage across the grain, and signs of hand-sawing on hidden framing elements. Leg profiles typically feature cabriole curves terminating in pad or claw-and-ball feet, often secured with H-stretchers or pad foot stretchers.

A pair of Queen Anne chairs works effectively as accent seating in a hallway, flanking a console table, or alongside a contemporary desk. The natural warm tones of walnut provide contrast when paired with minimalist architecture or neutral walls.

Preserve antique walnut by maintaining stable humidity levels away from direct heat sources and sunlight. Apply a clear beeswax polish once or twice a year with a soft cloth, buffing gently to protect the original patina without building up excess residue.
