Antique Regency Set of 12 Mahogany Dining Chairs Including 2 Carvers

A fine quality set of twelve Regency mahogany dining chairs comprising ten single chairs and two carvers. The set displays elegant proportions with a rich warm tone to the mahogany and a pleasing patina throughout.

Each chair features a shaped top rail above a finely carved mid rail with a central roundel and flowing leaf decoration, a classic Regency design that gives both detail and refinement without being overly ornate. The carvers are particularly well drawn with shaped arms and turned supports offering both comfort and presence at the head of the table.

Raised on slender sabre legs to the rear with elegant front legs, the chairs are well balanced and sturdy. The seats are traditionally stuff over upholstered giving a softer more refined appearance and a comfortable sit in keeping with higher quality Regency examples.

In the Regency period such chairs were made for formal dining rooms where style and proportion were just as important as comfort. Today they remain highly versatile and work equally well in both traditional and more contemporary interiors.
