Great pair of Continental walnut lions paw and embossed leather hall chairs or side chairs in lovely condition, circa 1880.
Both chairs are beautifully carved with the lions masks to the tops of the chairs and all four feet to both chairs feature the lions paw feet.
The embossed leather is in good condition to both chairs, although there is a minor split to one of them, but this really isn''t noticeable and is totally stable. Both chairs are solid and certainly useable.
Very decorative pair of chairs and would work well as hall chairs, desk chairs, bedroom chairs etc.
As with most antique walnut, there are traces of previous worm holes in the underside of the seat, but as a precaution, the chairs have been treated and beeswax fills the old holes, so it is of non concern.
Measuring:
37” or 94cm high
17 1/2” or 44.5cm wide
20” or 51cm deep
17 3/4” or 44cm seat height
