Perhaps the Rarest of all Victorian Wicker pieces, this parlor chair was used for Ladies to gossip while not facing … more Perhaps the Rarest of all Victorian Wicker pieces, this parlor chair was used for Ladies to gossip while not facing one another or to limit contact between courting couples. Victorian to its extreme, it has curlicues, a woven beaded apron with open weave skirt below, birdcage supported armrests, rolled woven backs, braiding, brass leg caps, cane seats and every imaginable bell or whistle. Somehow it has been painted white with a gold trim, which has worn off in some places. We leave it to the new owner to choose a new finish to this unbelievable piece. If only it could talk, what a tale it could tell! It can be seen in Collector's Guide to American Wicker Furniture by Richard Saunders on page 116, Living With Wicker by Saunders and Olsson page 49 and in Collecting and Restoring Wicker by Richard Saunders it is shown on page 33 as part of as illustrated as piece number 6262 an old Heywood Brothers and Wakefield Company catalog photo. This rare piece is quite well documented. less
