This particular example was made in New England or perhaps New York sometime during the 19th century. Every element of the chair is entirely all original including the desirably old black painted finish that has developed craquelure through two centuries of natural oxidation. The seat of this chair is splint woven and has remained in great condition.

We advise to anyone to treat this chair as a historical accent to an interior and not test the integrity of the seat by sitting on it. These antique side chairs make the perfect companions beside antique tables or in corners of rooms. The chair is made with a ladderback design and has remained in good order with proper care. Double stretcher supports span the base to reinforce the chair frame and provide long term stability. This chair is the perfect primitive design solution for a country home that might benefit from some antique charm.

This primitive antique country chair measures 17 3/4" wide x 14 1/2" deep x 34" tall overall with a seat height of 16" tall. See less
