Victorian Clerk's High Chair or Kitchen Chair in Beach and Elm, English Ca. 1880

About the Item

This is a late 19th century Clerk's Estate High Chair as used at a Clerk's Desk in the late Victorian period, circa 1880, now very useful as a kitchen chair at a breakfast bar. The chair is made of beech with a shaped elm seat and a nicely curved back having a solid central vertical splat. The tall legs are connected by six rectangular stretchers with pegged mortise and tenon joints which makes the chair very strong. This chair could be used at a high desk as intended or as a tall chair at a breakfast bar in a kitchen setting or simply as an individual display chair in any area of the home or office. The chair has a good mellow color.

  • Mid Victorian Side Chair Finely Hand Carved with Wool Work Seat, Circa 1850
    Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
    This is a very good quality example of an English occasional side chair in the Rococo style, from the mid Victorian period, circa 1850, made from Beech. The back is a Classic balloon back shape, but with intricate cut-out and carved detail to the frame and particularly to the cross splat. This carved detail is continued on the front legs and front stretcher. The foot of the legs are splayed slightly outwards which adds to the features of this chair. Twin side stretchers give additional strength to this chair but overall this is a delicately made chair. It has a good wool-work covered seat with a rose spray design. Please note: This chair is not a strong dining room chair and is not recommended for regular use as a chair to sit on. The chair is light and would make a very pretty bedroom or hall side chair, to be used principally for display either on its own or with say teddy bears displayed on it, or for draping light...
