Description:
This is a fine quality set of six English antique Victorian solid mahogany crown back dining chairs, circa 1860, which have been newly upholstered and French polished by hand, to a professional standard, in excellent condition.

The chairs are designed with an attractive “crown” shaped back and a shaped central horizontal splat. The chairs feature drop-in seats, which have been newly upholstered, to a professional standard, in top quality hardwearing light oatmeal colour, structured cotton upholstery. The chair frames are constructed using the traditional “bolt-back” method. The chairs have been cleaned, tightened and French polished by hand, to a professional standard, in our workshop, therefore the colour and patination is of an excellent standard. The chairs stand on ring turned front legs, sabre rear legs and the seat frame boasts an elegant moulded front rail. This set of chairs boast a stunning patination; therefore, they have a fantastic depth of colour displaying a lovely rich red and brown mahogany colour. If you do not like the colour/style of the upholstery, we can recover the seats in a fabric of your choice. If you would like the seats recovered, please contact us for a quote.

The chairs feature a rich red and brown mahogany colour. As they boast the original polish, they have a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning they have received.

These chairs would look would look good anywhere, from a formal room or for everyday use. They would certainly grace any home or office and are a great investment, as they are extremely functional.
