A superb pair of 19th century giltwood armchairs with the highly desirable and rare camel shaped back which makes the chairs more comfortable than those with a show frame with generous seats. They are carved in limewood and retain the original gilt which is delightfully rubbed in the areas you would expect with the natural bole and gesso showing through. Water gilded in 24 ct gold leaf and not oil gilded. We have just collected these from our upholsterers where they have been completely resprung and upholstered in a natural linen fabric with double piping detail.

Very comfortable. 19th century. fabulous condition.
