Description

Shanghai, circa 1890
These exquisite chairs were crafted in Shanghai in the late 1800s. The design may appear simple in comparison to similar Chinese chairs, but it still showcases classic elements such as the curved side posts, headrail, and subtle 'S'-shaped backrest - all of which are iconic features of Chinese yoke-back chairs. The seats are generously sized, with flush central panels and outer frames. The original black lacquer finish has faded over time, revealing the natural color of the elm wood. Sold as a pair, the price listed is for both chairs.
