These chairs are very rare, original circa 1880, the distressing to the paintwork is exquisite, you couldn’t make it up, we have professionally restored these to include a deep clean which was two days work for two employees, the paint has been stabilized with any loose flaking rubbed off, the chairs have then been waxed and polished sealing the remaining finish from any further losses, the end result is sublime.
The chairs have the original metal hand hammered strapwork to the corners, native scenes carved into the back splats, there is one loss to one corner that I can see, otherwise, they are all present and correct.
These are a genuine barn find, they were in the same place for around 60 years totally untouched and luckily dry.
