Description:
Incorporating a drop-in seat design, the seat frames are finely moulded. The seats have been newly upholstered in top quality embroidered structured silk & cotton upholstery with a gold diamond pattern on a wine-red background, and new hessian undersides. Therefore, the seats are in excellent and clean condition, with no marks. The seats are well padded and firm but comfortable at the same time - you do not sink into the seat. The chairs feature moulded chamfered block legs to the front, with sabre legs to the rear, united by ‘H’ stretchers for additional strength. Chairs with chamfered legs denote quality. This is a true set of chairs; they have not been matched together from other sets of chairs.

Condition Report:
The chairs are in excellent original condition. Nominal old use marks to the leading edges of the frames, but nothing significant considering the age of the item. There have been old minor repairs to the pierced fretwork splats (this is to be expected from full period Georgian chairs) – the splats are solid in joint. The chairs have been French polished and all loose joints have been glued in our workshop; therefore, the chairs are now solid in joint. The seats have been newly upholstered in top quality embroidered structured silk & cotton upholstery with a gold diamond pattern on a wine-red background. Therefore, the seats are in excellent and clean condition, with no marks. As the chairs retain the original polish, the frames boast a lovely original colour and patination. They are solid in joint (not loose or wobbly) and are ready to use.
