The set comprises two armchairs and four side chairs. The chairs have been traditionally French polished by hand in our workshop, to a professional standard, therefore, the finish, colour and patination is excellent. The chairs are constructed of solid mahogany and decorated with a finely carved floral shaped reeded vertical bar, flanked by further reeded vertical bars, secured by reeded vertical rails. The armchairs are boast fine quality satinwood and ebony string inlay to the elegant bar backs and arms. Incorporating generous and comfortable over stuffed seats, which have just been professionally upholstered in new top-quality taupe colour structured cotton material, finished with matching braiding and traditional hessian backing to the underside.
The seats are therefore in excellent and clean condition, with no marks. The seats are firm but comfortable; you do not sink into the seat. The chairs rest on tapered block legs to the front, with sabre legs to the rear.
The armchairs mirror the design of the singles, with the addition of two splayed, shaped arms, secured by shaped vertical supports. In addition to the string ebony and satinwood inlay decoration, the arms also feature matching details. Please note, this is a true set of chairs; they have not been matched together from smaller sets of similar chairs.
The chairs would look superb in the dining. They would certainly grace any home and are a great investment as they are extremely functional. So, don’t miss out on your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.

We will also provide you with our shippers’ contact details, in case you need to contact the driver on the day of delivery. It’s helpful if you can provide us with both the landline and mobile telephone number, in case the driver cannot reach you on one of the numbers on the day of delivery, they can contact you on your alternative number.
