Description: This striking reproduction exhibits the high back, flowing lines, boxwood inlay and sense of lightness and delicacy that are hallmarks of the neoclassic style. The 18th-century revival of interest in classical design was prompted in part by a growing fascination with Pompeii and Herculaneum, the ancient Roman sites of archeological excavations that began in the 1740s. Chairs feature legs on casters. Reproduced from an antique circa 1790 in the Colonial Williamsburg Collection. Model CW 13 His Lordship's Chair sometimes referred to as the Martha Washington Chair. Upholstered in a beautiful Silk Federal Striped Upholstery

Condition Report: Some Light scuffs and scratches with some wear to fabric. Extremely sturdy and well made. Beautiful Pair of Chairs.
