Description

These dining chairs represent the Edwardian fascination with 18th‑century English design, skillfully reinterpreting the Chippendale aesthetic for early 20th‑century tastes. The pierced splats and cabriole legs echo mid‑Georgian elegance, while the precise mortise‑and‑tenon joinery and fine mahogany construction reflect the craftsmanship standards upheld by English cabinetmakers around 1900.

Sets of this quality were typically commissioned for country houses or London town residences seeking interiors that balanced historic formality with Edwardian refinement. Their restrained decoration and robust construction make them as practical for contemporary dining rooms as they were for their original setting.

Each: H=38 in. W=25 in. D=28 in. 15 lbs.
Seat: H=17.5 in. W=18-23 in. D=17 in.
