The upholstered seats are covered in a white-on-white textile featuring a small-scale geometric diamond pattern. The frames are supported by front cabriole legs with carved shells at the knees, terminating in pad feet. The rear legs are raked and joined to the front legs by a turned H-stretcher.

Height: 39.5 inches

Width: 21 inches

Depth: 17 inches.


Condition report:

Both chairs are in good overall condition. The mahogany frames show minor surface wear, including light scratches, nicks, and small scuffs to the finish, primarily concentrated on the lower legs and feet, consistent with age and typical use. The upholstery is clean and in excellent condition with no visible staining, pulling, or tears. The joinery is structurally sound and stable.
