Hitchcock half spindle back maple Inn Chair with an eagle stenciled pattern on the chair’s splat. The chair has a solid maple plank seat and an elegant back with half spindles and turned stiles. Turned legs and stretchers, and what the Hitchcock company called a “pillow” crest complete the look. The chair is ebony with Hitchcock’s signature Harvest finish on the seat. It shows the high quality craftsmanship that Hitchcock put into all their furniture. It’s age is post 1951 as evidenced by the makers stamp found on the seats underside. This mark is what the company used to identify its furniture from copies that had started to show up as antiques on the market after that date. The stamp is shown in one of the included photos. The makers mark is also stenciled across the back of the seat. This chair would make a nice addition as an accent chair in most any room with classical American decor. As with most pieces of preowned furniture the chair shows normal age wear expected of a vintage piece such as faint scratches and finish wear from normal daily use but overall this chair looks practically new. Please look closely at the pictures as they make up an important part of the description. Questions are always welcome. See less
