About the Item
A very beautiful Rococo-Revival, Chippendale style chair in mahogany with ribbon-back carving. Exquisitely carved and articulated ribbon back framed by acanthus carved foliates. Chair knees and talloned claw feet are well-articulated. Slip seat is surrounded by a variation of an egg and dart motif carved on the top border of the seat rails. This is not a typical style of Chippendale chair that was produced during this period. The ribbon-back is a published style in Chippendale's compendium The Gentleman
Cabinet Maker’s Director but it is not a form that was often produced in the mid-19th century in Philadelphia. Original finish and patina. Philadelphia, circa 1840.
measures: 21.25 wide x 23" deep x 40.5" high
Seat height 18"

George 111 period Chippendale Armchair finely carved, Circa 1760
By Thomas Chippendale
Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
This is a superb hardwood, Mid Georgian, Thomas Chippendale period Armchair of excellent wide proportions and superb colour, which we date to the mid 18th century, George 111rd period, circa 1760.
The Arm Chair has many fine features:
Excellent wide proportions.
Fine Scroll Arms.
Similar carved Scroll Ears to ends of cresting rails.
Intersecting ribbon pierced splat with carved detail.
Fluted side rails to back.
The pegged and jointed legs are square with an inside chamfer on both back and front legs.
It has a drop-in seat with a very light green plain fabric. This drop in seat allows for an easy change of fabric covering to one of choice, by reupholstering the seat.
The proportion of this chair is excellent with very good width and a good rake to the back and rear legs. The hardwood, possibly Walnut, has developed a beautiful mellow colour and patina with age and polishing over the years.
Overall a fine quality, English Georgian Arm Chair...
