Antique Windsor Chair with Crinoline Stretcher – Nottinghamshire, 19th C.

19th century
Sold 2 February 2026 · M Cross Antiques
This “Antique Windsor Chair with Crinoline Stretcher – Nottinghamshire, 19th C” found a buyer.

It was listed by M Cross Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

A very nice example of a 19thC Nottinghamshire high back yew and elm Windsor chair. Featuring a carved splat, a solid saddle seat, three tapering underarm spindles on either side, and a very regional turned underarm support. Additionally, the arm bow has a distinctively notched underside at each end. Raised on highly decorative ring-turned legs, united by a crinoline stretcher, with the stretcher supports also being highly decorative when compared to the vast majority available.

The overall condition is very good, with age-related wear and tear. We have noted a historic repair to the central back splat, but beyond that, this chair is in lovely order. No makers' stamp present, but the design markers all point to the Allsop family of Worksop (mid-19th century).

Windsor chairs originated in the English countryside during the early 18th century, developing from vernacular furniture-making traditions that combined turned legs with steam-bent wood.

Traditional Windsor chairs typically feature a combination of native timbers, utilising elm for the solid carved seat, ash or yew for the bentwood bow and spindles, and beech for the turned underframe.

Authentic pieces display period-appropriate tool marks, traditional wedged mortise-and-tenon joints, natural wear patterns, and regional construction characteristics such as specific stretcher configurations.

This piece works effectively as a statement armchair in a living space or study, introducing natural texture and historical character alongside modern minimalist or rustic furnishings.

Preserve antique wooden furniture by maintaining stable ambient room humidity, avoiding direct sunlight, and periodically nourishing the timber with traditional microcrystalline wax.
