Antique Primitive Westcountry Stick Back Windsor Chair

Name: Antique Primitive Westcountry Stick Back Windsor Chair
Brand: Antique
SKU: SA770255
Availability: SoldOut

19th century

Sold by In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors

Description

An unusual and very primitive example of a stick back windsor chair, most likely originating from the Westcountry and dating from the late 18th / early 19th Century. The chair stands on four simple legs joined by stretchers with a stick back to a slightly arched top rail. It has a drop in rush woven seat, likely a later replacement.

For the style of chair it is well made and fairly solid. There is some slight movement in the arms but this is down to the design. It has a wonderful look and is quite a sculptural piece.

There are various old repairs and signs of extensive historic woodworm which has all been treated as a precaution.

It is approximately 37 1/2" (95cm) high, 19" (48cm) wide and deep. The seat is a little lower than a modern chair, measuring 14 1/2" (37cm) high.

The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
