Description

A beautiful and impressive antique carved walnut corner chair. This was most likely made in Italy, we would date it to around the 1790’s period.

It is of extremely fine quality, with crisp and interesting carving, including gargoyles around the outer edges and a cherub on the top edge. The chair is beautifully designed and is a useful size.

We have had the frame re-polished and the seat has been newly upholstered in a cream cotton fabric. The condition is superb for its age, with a gorgeous overall patina.

Width – 28 inches , 71 cm

Depth – 27 inches , 69 cm

Height – 29 inches , 74 cm

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Corner chairs, also known as roundabout or writing chairs, emerged in the early 18th century, designed specifically to fit snugly into the corner of a room or to be used comfortably at a writing desk.

These pieces were typically constructed from dense hardwoods such as walnut, oak, or mahogany, featuring intricate hand-carvings, mortise-and-tenon joinery, and cabriole or turned legs.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of age such as hand-cut joinery, timber shrinkage, natural oxidisation, and tool marks consistent with period woodworking techniques rather than modern machinery.

An antique corner chair serves as an effective focal point in an empty corner, functioning as an occasional seat or a distinctive desk chair that contrasts cleanly with contemporary minimalism.

Preservation involves maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent timber bleaching, and occasionally treating the wood with microcrystalline wax rather than modern silicon polishes.
