Description

A lovely matched set of 6 Rush seated dinning chairs (4 singles plus two carvers).

They are in good original condition and a lovely colour. A couple of the chairs have had the legs tipped but when round a table this won't be too visible. The rushing to the seats is generally in good usable condition with only minor damage.

If you need a bigger set I have 3 similar chairs that you can have to make a set of 8 or 9.

The dimensions below are for the carver chairs, the single chairs will be narrower.

Free local delivery (30mls), national delivery arranged at cost

FAQs

Spindle and ladder back chairs have roots in traditional country craftsmanship, evolving from simple vernacular furniture made by regional artisans using locally sourced timber and woven rush seats.

These pieces typically utilise native hardwoods such as ash, elm, or oak for the frame, joined by mortise and tenon construction, and feature hand-woven rush or rush-style seats.

Authenticity is assessed by examining tool marks, timber shrinkage, the patina of the wood, hand-turned spindle irregularities, and the tightness of the woven rush seat.

They provide warmth and character when paired with a contemporary dining table to create a deliberate contrast between clean modern lines and historic craftsmanship.

Maintain them by keeping them away from direct heat sources and moisture, occasionally dusting with a dry cloth, and protecting the rush seats from excessive point pressure.
