Description

A lovely quality chair with distinctive carved lappets to the front legs. It's a stylish design used by firms including Gillows, and James Mein of Kelso, who incorporated a similar device in the front legs of a satinbirch armchair for the Duke of Roxburghe c.1835, now held in the National Museum of Scotland. However generally the hollow section is at the top rather than the bottom of the leg.
Unusual too are the castors, stamped J.W LEWTY PATENT below a crown. I haven't seen this maker before, and on a fairly cursory online search found only three other examples.
One, usefully was closely related to chair made of mahogany rather than giltwood with a provenance of The Earls of Crawford & Balcarres, Balcarres House, Fife, sold by Lyon & Turnbull, lot 534, 3rd September 2020, Edinburgh.
Seat height 37cm.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Reliable transport is easily arranged at cost price throughout the UK.
