Yolanda Gray Antiques has dated this piece to the 1920s.
The arched frame is constructed of top quality solid mahogany, which features acanthus leaf carvings to the scroll arms, with Chinese Chippendale blind fretwork carving to the lower section of the frame, specifically the frieze and block legs. Decorative Chinese Chippendale open fretwork spandrels sit between the legs and frieze.
Double panel cane suites are better quality than suites that just feature single cane wall throughout. The suite is of good seat height; it does not sit too low, like other bergere suites you see in the market place.
The suite has been newly upholstered in top quality hardwearing wool and cotton structured biscuit fabric finished with matching piping and braiding to the chair frame. The cushions are firm but comfortable. The cushion covers feature zips so that the top layers can be removed if they need to be cleaned. The suite features a firm sprung base below, which makes the suite extremely comfortable. The suite seats up to five people comfortably. This is a very comfortable suite due to the deep design of the frame.
This suite features a rich brown mahogany colour.
