Antique Victorian Mahogany Balloon Back Dining Chairs – Set of Eight

A beautiful set of eight antique Victorian mahogany dining chairs, dating from circa 1860, displaying elegant proportions, finely carved detailing and a rich, warm mahogany finish.

Each chair features a beautifully shaped balloon back with a generously curved and moulded top rail, centred by a finely carved floral motif with graceful scrolling supports. The attractive open backs give the chairs a light and elegant appearance, while the distinctive shaped seats and finely turned, reeded front legs add further character and refinement.

The chairs are upholstered in an attractive pale gold patterned fabric, which complements the rich mahogany beautifully. The generously padded seats provide comfortable seating, making this a particularly appealing set for both formal dining and everyday use.

A wonderful opportunity to acquire a matching set of eight Victorian dining chairs, combining decorative appeal with practical functionality. Their timeless design would sit equally comfortably around an antique mahogany dining table or within a more contemporary interior.

Condition Report

Very good antique condition, with a rich mahogany finish and minor age-related marks and wear consistent with their age. All eight chairs are structurally sound, sturdy and stable, with solid joints. The upholstery presents well, with an attractive pale gold patterned fabric.
