About the Item

A gorgeous and extremely rare pair of Pugin-style gothic golden oak steeple back chairs in wonderful condition. Likely made around the Mid-20th Century, these beautifully crafted and highly decorative chairs make knockout dining or accent chairs and will add super quality, gorgeous colouring and bygone sophistication to any interior. We currently have four of these chairs in total - please see our other listing for the set of four. Expertly crafted from beautifully toned solid oak ranging from golden-honey to nutty brown, they have beautiful tiger oak grain patterning, are reassuringly heavy and have a wealth of fabulous carved detailing to admire. Crafted in the Gothic Revival style after Victorian design giant Pugin, these fabulous chairs hark back to the medieval Gothic period and their wonderful carvings include show-stopping and very impressive 'steeple' backs with knockout detailing including a triptych of church windows below beautiful steeple-shaped crest rails. They have wonderfully impressive front legs, their beautifully decorative turnings flanking standout central octagonal trunks, decorative wavy recessed front aprons below good-sized bordered seats with beautifully curving back legs below angled backs. All in all this is an exceptional and rare pair steeple back chairs, which wouldn't look out of place in a cathedral or the grandest of manor houses and will enhance any setting with their superb carvings, colouring and quality. We currently have four of these chairs in total - please see our other listing for the set of four. CONDITION These chairs are in very good-to-excellent condition. Structurally sound, wonderfully crafted and built to last of excellent quality and reassuringly heavy solid light oak, they have been refinished to bring out the gorgeous golden oak colouring and show only the most minor signs of their age. Overall they’re a fabulous and very rare set in wonderful condition and if well looked after they should remain just as appealing for centuries to come - please see the photos. MEASUREMENTS Height - 92.5cm, Width - 45.5cm, Depth - 44cm, Seat Height - 45cm, Seat Width to widest point - tbc, Seat Depth - tbc, Weight per chair - 8kg.
