A pair of British colonial library chairs in dark spanish mahogany with hand caned seat and back. The top rail with a beautiful floral carving at centre, the seat apron with floral motif and the arms rest on ball supports. The front legs with multiple turnings and the rear legs slightly raked and shorter than the front legs, so that the seat inclines. The seat and the back have recently been re-caned in one continuous section in a diamond pattern which was a typical colonial design. The seat height is 44 cm or 17¼”.
The chairs are in good condition and have been lovingly restored and finished to its former glory using a traditional form of French polishing and waxing. The spanish mahogany has a dark shade with a striking grain.
The price quoted is for two chairs.
