Pair of burr walnut side chairs in the George I / Queen Anne revival taste. Lovely shaped backs with solid burr figuring, and finished with carved cabriole legs and claw feet. The seats have their original look upholstery (painted / decorative finish) and are properly eye-catching - ideal as occasional chairs, bedroom chairs or just to add a bit of character to a corner.
A good decorative pair with plenty of presence.
