A Smart Carved Oak Hall Chair, Second Half 19th Century

19th century
For Sale by Jeckyll & Co
Description

The rails stamped with reference number 5876. In terms of maker, the firm of Wylie & Lochead of Glasgow are worth considering as a candidate, so too John Taylor of Edinburgh.

88cm high x 44cm wide x 43cm deep

At some point in time the chair was possibly in the collection of Cawdor Castle.

Structurally sound with no repairs. There's a smidge of movement where the back joins the seat due to the shrinkage gap. The seat has a few minor marks and fading, (star stickers to the back included at no extra cost), see images.

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.

Hall chairs are non-upholstered timber accent chairs designed historically for reception areas or entrance halls, providing seating for brief callers or staff while displaying decorative carved details such as armorial crests.

Victorian hall chairs were primarily crafted from dense hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, and walnut, featuring solid timber seats without fabric upholstery to avoid wear from wet outerwear.

Authentic 19th-century hall chairs display hand-carved decorative motifs, hand-turned legs, authentic timber shrinkage around joinery, and natural patination across exposed wooden surfaces.

Place a hall chair singularly in an entryway, landing, or alcove alongside modern artwork or a minimalist mirror to create a striking architectural focal point.

Maintain antique oak by dusting regularly with a soft cloth, applying high-quality beeswax twice yearly, and keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and damp environments.
