Early 18th Century High Back Antique Oak Settle

Dating from around 1700 this beautiful antique oak settle is of the high back design. It is full of the charm and character one would expect in a piece over 300 years old, oozing personality! The back has a decoratively carved frieze to the top above four panels with moulded edges. The seat itself lifts to reveal an ever so useful storage area and is flanked by two delightfully shaped arms. The frame is supported by early iron corner brackets while the piece as a whole oozes charm and character from years of use. This antique is definitely one that brings a sense of history to ones' home. The oak is a lovely warm mellow shade with a striking grain, good patina, is in very good condition and has been beautifully cleaned using a traditional form of wax finishing.
