A super original set of six Victorian walnut balloon back dining chairs dating to around 1860. With decorative pierced and carved backs above gros-point floral needlework seats and on cabriole legs. These are good examples of this popular chair with a lovely soft patina and elegant look.
In good condition, there are some marks to the needlework upholstery and the braid is coming loose, some old repairs to the back stretchers and one with loss to the top piercing.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or for more photos as we are limited in the number we can upload.

When buying it is important appreciate antiques have long histories of daily use and as such, over time they gain minor scratches, marks, knocks, shrinkage splits, signs of old woodworm, lifts and losses to veneer, which combine with care and years of polishing to create
...an individual character and patina. We describe the main flaws and those that fall outside of this bracket but cannot describe each marks separately and therefore suggest you do take the time to request extra photos. We do offer a 14 day money back guarantee if you are unhappy with your purchase but cannot refund the return shipping cost. If you are not sure please do not buy without clarifying or take the view that the only way to have it as near to new as possible is to have it fully and comprehensively restored.
For delivery we use a small carrier experience in carrying antique furniture. Delivery is usually within 31 days and the carrier will make arrangements with you directly. We can provide contact details of other carriers if required.
