Set of Four Handsome Victorian Walnut Dining Chairs with Finely Carved Balloon Backs and Blue Velvet Seats

19th century
Description

This is a lovely set of four Walnut Dining Chairs that were made in the Victorian era. The Balloon Backs are finely carved with striking motifs on the top rail and the central bar. The seats are well upholstered in midnight blue velvet.

The chairs stand on most unusually carved front legs with the usual splay legs to the rear. Possible repairs to some legs.

We have dated these elegant chairs in the Early to Mid-Victorian era of about 1830-1860.

The Victorian era was the period of Queen Victoria's reign, from 20 June 1837 until her death on 22 January 1901. It was a long period of peace, prosperity, "refined sensibilities" and national self-confidence for the United Kingdom. Some scholars date the beginning of the period in terms of sensibilities and political concerns to the passage of the Reform Act 1832.

All of the items that we advertise for sale have been as accurately described as possible and are in excellent condition, unless otherwise stated. Please note that we are also able to arrange a full shipping service for our customers.

We offer a 14 day returns policy. In the unlikely event that you are not completely satisfied with your purchase we will issue a full refund of the purchase price less the return transport costs with an approved courier once an item is received by us in the same condition as it was originally dispatched.

We look forward to being of service.
