A handsome mid 19th century low back Windsor armchair, made in the traditional English manner from elm and ash. The elm saddle seat is beautifully figured, with a rich, warm colour and lovely tight grain pattern. The hooped back is fitted with a pierced vase-shaped splat flanked by turned spindles, while shaped arms terminate in turned, swept supports. The turned legs are joined by an H stretcher.
Circa 1850, this chair displays good colour throughout and remains in sturdy, useable condition with tight joints — a comfortable and versatile piece equally at home as a occasional armchair, fireside chair, or a striking addition to a country kitchen or hallway setting.
