.

DIMENSIONS:

Height – 84cm / Seat Height - 51cm / Width – 51.5cm / Depth – 41cm

.

CONDITION REPORT:

In good antique condition throughout with some signs of age. There is surface wear in places including age-related marks, scratches and dents to the frame, but very minimal. Some of the turned supports on the backrest have minor losses (pictured). This item shows signs of historic woodworm, however this is now long gone and has been fully treated as a precaution. The antique chair remains structurally solid and sound, with good tight joints. Overall, a rather pleasing example of an 18th century chair.

Our carpenter inspects, repairs, and restores our items, so you can have full confidence that what you buy from us is ready for your home!

We ask that you take the time to look at all the photos as they form part of the description and condition report of the item.

FAQs

A bobbin turned chair features framing components shaped on a lathe to resemble a series of spools or bobbins, a decorative technique that gained prominence during the 17th century in England and Europe.

These pieces were typically constructed from native hardwoods such as oak, beech, or ash, joined using traditional mortise and tenon joinery alongside lathe-turned spindles.

Authentication involves examining tool marks, timber shrinkage, hand-cut joinery, and the natural patination of the wood, which develop consistently over centuries of age.

This type of chair functions effectively as a sculptural accent piece or occasional seat in a hallway or living room, contrasting cleanly against contemporary minimalist backdrops.

Preservation requires maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight, and periodically applying microcrystalline wax to nourish and protect the historic timber surface.
