RARE pair of early 19th century Regency style solid rosewood Chinese arm chairs. These are a really nice pair of chairs of great design and wonderful dense, heavy timber. Sabre front legs with moulded decoration. What appears to be the original canework seats. The chairs are in good tight condition but there are a couple of minor old repairs that you have to look very hard to see, mainly to the bottom of the legs on one of them.

At first I thought these chairs were Anglo Indian but as can be seen in the last picture below I found the exact chair in the book "The China Trade" by Carl L Crossman where it is described as being an English Regency design chair made in China for the European market.

The chairs are the most wonderful timber which has taken on a very pleasing mellow colour and patination over the years.

SIZE 21" across the front, 17 1/2" deep and 33£ high overall. Seat height is 18"

CIRCA 1800 - 1820
