These chairs are constructed from excellent quality mahogany timbers and are of good bold proportions which in combination with the fact they are extremely sturdy means they are very much functional and fit for purpose. Many later regency dining chairs can be a little smaller and tighter in their proportions making them uncomfortable to sit in for long periods of time but that is certainly not something which is an issue with these particular dining chairs.

Overall the condition is very good with just a few minor, historic repairs, old marks and scratches as one would expect to find on items of this age. There is no major structural defects or issues to speak of and that is always something which is nice to find on antique dining chairs.

As with all items which we offer for sale this piece has been inspected and attended to in our workshops by our highly skilled, trained specialist antique furniture restorers and received a natural wax polish before being offered for sale to ensure it is in its best possible condition before being offered for sale.

The chairs have also been relatively recently reupholstered meaning that the fabric is in excellent condition.
