A fine George II mahogany armchair, the toprail carved with ‘C’ scrolls and acanthus, above a shaped carved and pierced splat centred with rosettes. The drop in seat covered with colourful floral petit-point 18th Century needlework, standing on cabriole legs also carved with acanthus and standing on ball and claw feet
This chair is a very fine example. The carving is particularly high quality, and the chair has retained a wonderful patina
