Object Description
A 19th Century Hepplewhite Style Childs Chair
Having Pierced And Shaped Splat Back Standing
On Square Legs And Stretchers
(Children’s, or Childs, Chairs as the name suggests were
made throughout the 18th and 19th centuries normally
as scale models of their full size counterparts for the
children of the family to use. They come in all sorts of
scales, shapes and sizes dependent of course on the
age of the child they were initially made for and the style
of the existing furniture within a home. This is a lovely
example of a Hepplewhite type design and the faux leather
seat is of the drop in variety meaning it can easily be recovered
in a different upholstery fabric should it be desired. Very much
fit for original purpose still and in good condition this would
be a lovely and charming addition to any family home.)
