It was listed by Tom Scott Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Tom Scott Antiques has dated this piece to the 1880s.
The chairs are a good size for daily use, not the small bedroom size.
Very well carved frames, elegant style and comfortable. The gilding has aged gracefully, with some areas worn here and there...these can be left as is, or I can touch them up with gilt if you would prefer.
The upholstery is not new, but is in good condition and the seats are also good.
Great decorative pair of armchairs, comfortable and good for daily use.
Can be offered in 2 x pairs if you don't want or need the set of four.
Measuring:
39'' or 99cm high
24 1/2'' or 62cm wide
22'' or 56cm wide
18'' or 46cm seat height
