About the Item
A rare set of twelve George III mahogany tablet-back dining chairs attributed to Gillows of Lancaster and dating to circa 1790. Comprising two carver armchairs and ten side chairs, the backs with box and ebony strung fiddleback mahogany rails flanked by fielded uprights with pointed terminals, on slender turned tapering legs to the front and slightly tapering square outsplayed legs to the rear with Gothic inspired corner brackets. The armchairs have elegant downswept and out curving arms on turned baluster shaped supports. All with comfy cover-over seats newly upholstered in green hide leather with close nailed studs.
