About the Item
We are delighted to offer for sale this lovely pair of Anglo Chinese hand carved Savonarola type armchairs with Dragon heads
A very good looking and decorative pair of hand carved circa 1900 horse shoe back armchairs with a Savonarola X-framed base
These chairs were made during the Anglo Chinese export period, we were in awe of the wonderful craftsmanship coming out of China and they were making sublime quality furniture for our soldiers and visiting tourists to buy and bring back with them
These two are a fine example, they look like they would have had some kind of rattan on the seat base originally due to the holes, I don’t know if the timer is a later addition or if they exactly as they are supposed to be as I’ve never seen another pair like this before
What I can say is the carving is very high quality, its ornate, the back splat has a very jolly looking Chinese dancer on, the arm ends are as mentioned dragons and the rest of the frame has a floral feel to it
In terms of the condition we have cleaned waxed and polished them from top to bottom, they have a lovely warm glow to them
Dimensions:
Height 87cm
Width 58cm
