This pair of mid nineteenth century side chairs is created in the George II style from walnut with a warm brown timber tone. Each chair has a high, softly curved back and a seat upholstered in terracotta velvet with visible signs of vintage wear and fading. The frames stand on crisply carved cabriole front legs decorated with acanthus leaf details, terminating in pad feet, and joined by shaped wooden stretchers. Measuring 89.5 cm high, 46 cm wide, and 54 cm deep with a seat height of 46 cm, these pieces offer comfortable seating for a dining room table, study desk, or occasional placement in a traditional living space.

FAQs

Originating in mid-18th century Britain, George II style furniture is characterised by carved cabriole legs, shell or acanthus leaf motifs, pad or claw feet, and solid timber framing made primarily from walnut or mahogany.

Side chairs from this period typically feature solid walnut or mahogany frames, carved leg joinery, webbed seat frames, and natural upholstery fabrics filled with horsehair.

Authentic pieces display hand-sawn wood marks on unexposed areas, hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, original glue blocks on seat frames, and natural timber oxidisation beneath the seat rails.

Position a pair of carved side chairs on either side of a hallway console table, or place them alongside a modern desk to introduce historic timber tones and tactile fabric into a room scheme.

Gently vacuum velvet fabric using a soft brush attachment to clear dust, keep timber away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking, and apply clear beeswax polish to walnut legs annually.
