A set of eight George III mahogany fan back dining chairs attributed to Gillows of Lancaster. Comprising six single chairs and ladies and gentleman’s carver chairs with variations in the arms this style of chair with an arched top rail and fan back was introduced by Gillows c.1779 and came to be one of their most popular chairs in the 1780’s.
