  The chairs feature several classic design influences from the ‘old world’ as a result of privileged young men rounding off their education were sent of to the antiquities ( Greece Italy Egypt and Crete ) known as the “Grand Tour’. They absorbed classic design influences and brought these back to England where they were incorporated in to Architecture Furniture and Interior Design.

  The basic lower waist rail compliments the larger top rail and both are connected by a row of finely turned finials featuring ring turnings and vertical reeds. Below both rails are decorative short inverted finials.
