A pair of nineteenth-century English Country style Windsor side chairs crafted from elm, beech, and birch in a warm brown colour. Each chair has a shaped top crossrail above a pierced lyre-shaped back splat, flanked by turned spindles on either side. The wooden saddle seat rests on turned legs joined by an H-stretcher, showing visible grain variations and minor natural wear consistent with regular nineteenth-century use. These side chairs stand 82 cm high, 48 cm wide, and 48 cm deep. Suitable for placement in a country house kitchen or dining room, they provide functional seating while adding period character to an interior.

FAQs

A Windsor chair is characterised by a solid wooden seat into which the chair legs and backrest spindles are inserted using round tenons, contrasting with standard chairs where the back legs and back uprights form a continuous piece.

Traditional Windsor chairs were typically crafted using a combination of regional hardwoods, such as elm for the shaped saddle seat, alongside beech, ash, or yew wood for the steam-bent back bows and turned spindles.

Authentic antique Windsor chairs often feature hand-shaped seats displaying adze marks, wedged joinery visible through the seat timber, and naturally uneven wear on the turned stretchers and legs.

Antique Windsor side chairs can be integrated into modern interiors as standalone accent seating, placed at a hall console table, or paired with a contemporary dining table to create a textured, eclectic aesthetic.

Preserve antique Windsor chairs by keeping them away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage, and regularly apply a high-quality beeswax polish along the grain to nourish the wood.
