Antique Victorian Mahogany Dining Chairs Set of Eight 6 Singles 2 Carvers English
Description
A good quality set of antique Victorian mahogany dining chairs comprising six singles and two carvers. The backs are well shaped with pierced splats showing classic late Victorian influence, combining elegance with strength. The carvers have attractive shaped arms with a refined scroll finish, giving the set a more formal head-of-table presence.
Raised on square tapering legs with stretchers, the frames are solid and well constructed. The chairs have been newly upholstered in a warm gold patterned fabric which works nicely against the rich mahogany colour and gives a clean ready-to-use finish.
These chairs were originally made for formal dining rooms in larger homes where comfort and symmetry were important. The inclusion of carvers allowed the host and guest of honour a more distinguished seat, a detail still appreciated today.
Condition
Very good antique condition with solid frames and no movement. Minor age related marks to the wood as expected. Upholstery is clean and fresh.
