About the Item

A Very Attractive Mid 19th Century, Gothic Design, Figured Oak, Pair Of Hall Chairs, Having Very Elegant Swept Arch Back Supports With Applied Cockbeading Decoration And Pierced Quatrefoils, Over Well Figured Seats And Elegantly Carved Frieze, Raised On Square Moulded Legs To Front And Swept Legs To Back.  Originally the purpose of hall chairs was exactly as their name suggests, to sit in the hallway of a house and be used for any guests to take a seat on after arrival whilst waiting for the owner of the house to be ready to receive them. For this reason they nearly always had wooden seats and backs so that any wet and dirty clothes were not likely to soil any expensive, or elaborate, fabric upholstery. Generally hall chairs are found in many shaped and sizes, constructed throughout both the 18th and 19th centuries to varying degrees of quality and scale, dependent upon whom and where they were being made for. Very much fit for original purpose and relatively sturdy with very little significant damage, which isn’t always the case with these types of chairs following heavy usage throughout the years, these are a lovely, elegant design of chair which would look absolutely fantastic in a whole variety of different spaces around the home. As with all items which we offer for sale this pair of chairs have been inspected in our workshops by our traditional antique furniture restorers and received a natural wax polish before being offered for sale, which ensures they are ready to be placed straight into the home. Circa 1860 Height 35in. Width 16.5in. Depth 15in. Seat Height 17.5in.
