Description

A high quality set of four walnut, amboyna and parcel gilt salon chairs, dating from the Victorian period 1837 - 1901.
The chairs have open backs - almost in the form of a cartouche with an upholstered oval pad in the centre held in place by four small carvings which protrude from the delicate outer frame and are finely moulded in walnut with a secondary inner gilded moulding and a veneered centre in Amboyna.
The front legs are turned with a parcel gilt fluted decoration upon brass castors, the legs are joined into the frame above with a dual panel of rosettes above each front leg with rails that mimic the same design as the back.
The chairs have been recently upholstered, they do however have a few small minor blemishes commensurate with use. Overall the chairs are in excellent condition, with only a few age related chips and marks.
