The Piece

About this piece

This is a very elegant 19th century English bobbin corner chair. The design is wonderful with tightly turned bobbin legs and supports as well as the spindles. The overall chair is in very good order with the original cane seat intact. The only minor fault is a couple of slightly weak spindles. Solid frame and nice original patina to the ebonised finish. The overall size is very large as well. 

Supplied with cushion pad shown or we can replace and recover for you should you wish.
