Each chair with a shaped, arched cresting rail surmounted by a carved and gilded acanthus-and-scroll pediment, above a broad vasiform splat richly decorated in raised polychrome chinoiserie lacquer depicting figures in landscape settings with pavilions, blossoming branches and rockwork on a deep vermilion ground. The shaped serpentine seat rail is similarly enriched with lacquer decoration and centred by a gilt cartouche, the caned seat set within a conforming frame.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nCabriole front legs terminate in pad feet; the square-section rear legs are united by a plain H-stretcher. The entire surface is finished in scarlet and black lacquer heightened with gilt, and the cresting retains its original gilding.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe chairs combine the formal vocabulary of the English Queen Anne period—the vasiform splat, cabriole leg, caned seat and carved cresting—with an Anglo‑Dutch chinoiserie decorative programme. The vermilion ground is characteristic of early eighteenth‑century japanned work, chosen to evoke Chinese and Japanese lacquer.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSpanish, early 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 45 cm W x 45 cm D x 114 cm H","brand":"The Vault Sydney","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52855131341122,"sku":"VS1998","price":11448.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/9271\/8658\/files\/a-set-of-eight-queen-anne-style-red-lacquered-and-gilt-chinoiserie-side-chairs-bazaa-designer-vintage-and-antique-furniture-3627166.jpg?v=1776903798","url":"https:\/\/bazaa.com.au\/products\/a-set-of-eight-queen-anne-style-red-lacquered-and-gilt-chinoiserie-side-chairs","provider":"Bazaa","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
