This is a superb quality antique 6ft English low back oak George II box settle (circa 1730 - 1760) believed to have originated from English. The settle is constructed of solid oak panelled timbers. The back consists of five raised fielded inset panels. Further fielded panels are also visible to the bottom of the seat and the sides of the settle. The two lids in the seat are hinged with hand beaten forged iron hinges. The inside of the box settle is ideal for storing shoes and wellies in the hallway. The settle boasts down swept shaped oak arms to the sides, pegged construction. The settle features the original polish and patination and thus the colour of this settle is superb.
