Antique George III Quality Sheraton Set of Eight Dining Chairs

18th century
Description

A superb quality set of eight George III Sheraton dining chairs comprising six singles and two carvers, crafted in fine mahogany. Each chair displays elegant reeded curved backs with a central turned roundel, typical of Sheraton’s refined neo-classical aesthetic.

The frames are beautifully shaped, with gently swept back legs and well-proportioned turned and reeded front legs, all standing sturdy and true. The set has been newly reupholstered in a tasteful patterned fabric which complements the warmth of the mahogany.

Condition

The chairs are in excellent condition for their age, the mahogany frames standing sturdy with no looseness or movement. The reeded backs and turned legs remain crisp and well defined, showing only minor age-related surface marks consistent with genuine period use. The seats have been newly reupholstered, offering a clean and comfortable finish. Overall, a very well-preserved and ready-to-use set.

FAQs

Sheraton style dining chairs, popularised during the late George III era, are characterised by light, elegant proportions, straight or turned legs, and backrests featuring geometric or curvilinear splats such as lattice designs.

Georgian furniture makers primarily utilised dense, high-grade mahogany for its strength and rich grain, paired with mortise and tenon joinery, turned timber legs, and padded seats upholstered in woven fabrics.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-carved details, hand-sawn frame joints with wood pegs, natural oxidisation on the timber underside, and slight irregularities inherent to traditional hand craftsmanship.

Pairing classical mahogany chairs with a contemporary dining table or modern artwork creates a balanced, eclectic aesthetic that highlights the craftsmanship of the traditional timber against minimalist elements.

Maintain mahogany timber by dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth and applying beeswax polish annually along the wood grain, while keeping the chairs away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage.
