  • ColourGolden Brown
  • MotifsTapered back splat, square cut legs, drop-in upholstered seats

This set of six 1930s dining chairs belongs to the Cotswold School style and is made from solid oak with a warm golden brown finish. Each chair features a shaped stepped central back splat, square tapering legs, and a drop-in seat pad upholstered in a patterned yellow fabric. Copper maker labels are affixed to the frames. The seats measure 48 cm high, with overall dimensions of 90 cm high, 47 cm wide, and 48 cm deep. These chairs suit daily use around a dining table in an English Country House setting, providing comfortable seating for family meals and gatherings. Their clean lines and natural timber grain complement traditional and period interiors while offering practical utility for dining rooms and kitchen spaces alike.

FAQs

Interwar Cotswold School and Gordon Russell furniture is defined by simplified geometric forms, emphasis on natural timber grain, and high-standard craftsmanship that bridges traditional handwork with modern manufacturing.

Chairs from this period were predominantly constructed from solid English oak or walnut, using traditional mortise and tenon joinery alongside woven textile or leather upholstery.

Authentic pieces frequently bear a paper or copper makers label fixed to the underside of the seat frame, detailing the designer, maker, and date, alongside distinctive chamfered splat design.

These structured timber chairs pair well with simple oak or natural stone tables, creating a balanced aesthetic in contemporary, modern minimalist, or period dining rooms.

Clean the oak timber with a dry microfibre cloth, apply clear beeswax sparingly once or twice a year, and gently vacuum the upholstery fabric using a brush attachment.
