pair of scottish georgian mahogany hall chairs

Pair of quality Scottish late George II mahogany hall chairs. The solid mahogany chairs have wonderful heraldic shaped backs with a scooped out centre. The seat is shaped and again has a slight scooping in the centre, and is supported on two unusual trestle ends. The front has a circular centre and shaped and curved feet, the back almost the same but outswept. The chair has an unusual shaped stretcher beneath. These chairs were produced for large wealthy clients. Good colour and patination. (For similar examples see Christie’s catalogue 2007 - lot 1, 2 and 3 - similar chairs from Dumfries House).

Georgian Antiques

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.
