After 1957, oak framed Orkney chair with makers label of Reynold Eunson for D. M. Kirkness, Kirkwell, Orkney. The light coloured oak frame connects to the woven back with the rows bound and top weave in marran grass, and the shaped arms end on C-scrolls.
David Kirkness reportedly made around 14,000 Orkney chairs in his lifetime, and Reynold Eunson (also a trained carpenter from Orkney) bought the workshop in 1956. He kept the Kirkness name and added his own name/stamp of RE with a thistle between. A similar example of this can be seen in the Victoria & Albert Museum, London.

Georgian Antiques was founded in 1978 by John Dixon's brother Padriac in a small shop at Jocks Lodge, Meadowbank in Edinburgh, with John joining the business after finishing college in 1981. The business grew so rapidly, they couldn't keep up with their inventory needs. Their goal has been to create a one-stop-shop where designers can complete an entire project from antique lighting to antique furniture to accessories. Scotland's largest antiques warehouse is located in a converted whiskey bond in historic Leith Edinburgh. With 50,000sq ft over five floors we offer a wide range of quality Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian furniture, as well as continental and small decorative items. Our stock is constantly changing.
