Description:

Here is an example of a superb set of four antique French Louis XV style slid oak rush seated ladder-back dining chairs of the 3rd Republic period, circa 1910, in excellent condition. Featuring a shaped top rail with two further wavy shaped rails below, in the form of a ladder back design within the shaped upright supports; the chairs feature “drop-in” rush seats, all of which are in good condition. The seats are raised on fine cabriole legs to the front (which terminate on curled toecaps), with sabre legs to the rear. The chairs are heavy in weight, which is a good sign of fine quality and it means they are sturdy.

Condition Report:

These antique ladder-back dining chairs are in excellent condition. This is a true set of chairs; they have not been matched together from smaller sets of chairs, which is sometimes the case. Nominal old use marks to the leading edges but nothing significant considering the age of the item. The chairs feature rush drop-in seats, which show some signs of age and wear, but are perfectly in-keeping with the age of the chairs, they are solid in joint and are of good quality. The chairs are heavy, which is a sign of good quality and ensures they are sturdy. The chairs boast the original polish, which ensures a fantastic patination and rich colour to the oak. All chairs are solid in joint, they do not wobble and are ready to use.
