Mid 19th.c. ‘Correction’ Chair c.1850
Fine example of a mid 19th.c. ‘Correction’ chair, c.1850. Simulated rosewood with a lyre back and retaining the original cane seat. Finely turned front legs and stretcher, with double stretchers to the sides and rear. Original condition throughout, with a great colour. Simply cleaned in our workshops.
Correction chairs were the invention of Sir Astley Paston Cooper (1768-1841), a surgeon and anatomist. He developed them to correct faulty posture in children. The upright and straight-backed design of the chair meant children sat correctly, as good posture meant keeping a straight back and upright head.
Dimensions: width 16″, depth 17″, height 38″ Please contact us for more images, delivery and shipping quotes. Alternatively you are welcome to view and collect at our large warehouse showroom in Llandudno Junction, North Wales (approximately 45mins from Chester). We have a large and ever changing selection of genuine good quality antique furniture of all types and have twice been shortlisted for the Home and Antiques Magazine Antique Shop of the Year Award. 01492 580022.
