Circa 1880, Victorian Aesthetic ebonised and gilt small hand chair, with twisting handle on the top, open fretwork back and stylised turned columns below with a mixture of gilding and ebony. The seat pad itself is a wonderful example of Victorian needlepoint with its geometric pattern. Below is a lovely cord and velvet mixture and a nice fringe. The legs again are a mixture of turning and fluting and there are similar stretchers on all sides. The legs finish with a slight sweep to the front and similar on the back. This is a wonderful example of Aesthetic Movement.
Size 83cm high x 42cm wide x 40cm deep.
