About the Item

A Handsome and Highly Decorative Set of Eight Painted Carved Oak Derbyshire Dining Chairs, circa 1910, in the 17th century Yorkshire Style (six single chairs and two grand carver armchairs) Echoing the distinctive Derbyshire / South Yorkshire designs of the late 17th century, this striking set combines period character with everyday practicality. Each chair features a high, arcaded back, richly carved with voluted scrolls, foliate motifs, flower heads and acorn pendants, creating an impressive silhouette around any table. Crafted in solid oak, the chairs are substantial, heavy and reassuringly sturdy. The construction showcases traditional craftsmanship: turned front legs, bobbin and baluster turning, peripheral stretchers and pegged joinery all contribute to strength, stability and longevity. The carved crescent shaped cross splats sit above comfortable panelled seats. A later painted finish, likely a soft distressed grey or “shabby chic” tone, lends a lighter, decorative feel while allowing the carving to stand out beautifully. This sympathetic repaint gives you the charm of 17th century style without the darkness of an original oak patina, making the set especially suited to both traditional and contemporary homes. The six side chairs and two generous carver armchairs work perfectly around a dining table, but also make wonderful accent pieces in a hallway, kitchen diner or reception room. Comfortable, very firm and ready to use, they bring an authentic sense of old world charm and warmth to any setting.
