Elevate your dining space with this exquisite set of six mid-19th-century Pennsylvania folk art chairs direct from the heart of Amish country in Lancaster county. Each chair is a testament to timeless craftsmanship, featuring a classic balloon-back design and a sturdy plank bottom.
The rich, dark wood is beautifully complemented by original hand-painted decoration, showcasing vibrant fruit and foliage motifs on the crest rails and splats. They are painted with still-life motifs of fruit and flowers, along with gold-colored striping and borders. This style is often referred to as "tole painting," a decorative art form that was popular in the 1800s. These chairs are not just furniture; they are a piece of history, offering a unique blend of rustic charm and artistic elegance that will be a conversation starter for years to come.
Despite their age, these chairs are sturdy and functional, ready to bring character and warmth to your home. Whether gathered around a farmhouse table or displayed as individual accent pieces, this set promises to add a touch of authentic, handcrafted beauty to any interior. As with most any set of preowned antique furniture the set’s condition is commensurate with use and age. Please look carefully at the pictures as they make up an important part of the description. Questions are always welcome.

There is a small crack in the upper corner of one splat shown in the pictures. There is also some “alligatoring” in some of the paint. This is another indication of advanced age. less
