  A set of six superb quality Antique English late George IV / William IV Dining Chairs. The chairs are beautifully crafted from the finest imported prestigious Brazilian Rosewood of mellowed lovely honey colour.

  The chairs are elegant and well proportioned with their waisted kidney shaped backs which are carved embellished with opposed raised floral scrolls in the French manner on the outer top shoulders. This is complimented by the lower shaped waist rail which has boldly carved opposed Tulips at both ends. The seat rails are straight and vertical. The front legs are well turned and nicely tapered plus feature a bold well carved inverted Tulip at the top of the leg.while the rear sabre legs flow downward from the real uprights.. sprung seats and carved Inverted Tulip motifs to the tapered front legs.

  These chairs were professionally restored by one of Sydneys best restorers in the 1980s. Our vendor had Robert Collins totally disassemble the chairs clean all the joints re glue and reassemble so they are rock solid. Robert then stripped, bleached and recoloured each chair individually then hand polishing them and antiquing them. The chairs were then upholstered the traditional way with webbing and hand rolled and stitched edges.

  This thorough time consuming restoration process cost our vendor nearly $700 per chair on top of the purchase price of the chairs so owe him well in excess of $1,000 each about 40 years ago back in the 1980s. To purchase the chairs now and have the same work carried out to the same exceptionally high and comprehensive professional standard would now cost around $$1,500 per chair.....if you could find an antique restorer of Robert Collins craftsmanship and artistic ability as they are a dying trade.

  Condition: Excellent / perfect.

  Size: Height 85cm x Width 47cm x Seat Depth 42cm.

  Price: Were $1,250 per chair however now reduced by the vendor down to $985 per chair..

  Sellers Observation: Exceptionally fine quality chairs with equally exceptional total sympathetic restoration that have been unused and in storage for almost 40 years.
