Heavily Carved Rosewood Gents Chair Heavily Carved Victorian Rosewood Gents Chair with a great
open pierced carved crest. The incredible crest on this chair has life size leaves and flowers
that go all across the back with center scrolling and roses (see photos). The finish is
original, old, and slightly flaking. The upholstery is very old and stained. The open arms are gracefully shaped with deep finger carvings and there are flowers on the apron base. Rosewood is a very difficult and dense wood to carve, so this chair was made by a very skilled and experienced Victorian craftsman.

Handsome Pair of Rosewood Jeliff Chairs Handsome Pair of Renaissance Revival Victorian Walnut Jeliff Chairs with open pierced carved crests. The crests have prince heads and the original gilt with more carvings on the sides. The chair backs are framed in burl around the perimeter with wide open side arms and large wide seats. They are decorated on the aprons with corresponding burl, gilt, and fine carvings. The legs are turned and tapered with casters on the front legs. There are new casters on one chair. The upholstery is old and should be replaced for regular use. There is some slight age lifting on the very back of the seat edges (see photo) and one tiny piece of carving is missing off the head area of the orange upholstered chair. These very heavy chairs are exceptional quality. We do not see many Jeliff examples in solid rosewood.

Twelve Victorian Dining Room Chairs Rare suite of twelve high style mahogany Victorian dining room
chairs with two arms. The shaped backs have a number of open carved cutouts
and carvings on each side. The skirts have a gentle serpentine shape and
are made of figured mahogany. The chairs have finely turned legs in front.
The leather on the seats is in good shape - they were done by a previous
owner. Most of the chairs retain their original castors that are signed
(see photo). When we purchased these chairs they were in need of a number
of minor repairs which we have done. They are now in good usable and tight
condition. These chairs would be the perfect complement to a large walnut
or mahogany Victorian dining room table. Even though they are mahogany they
would also match the original walnut patina of the tables we offer for sale.
Large suite like this, of fine quality Victorian dining room chairs, are
very hard to find!
Circa: 1860
Dimensions: 41"H x 24"W (arms) 38.5"H x 18.5"W (sides)

Pair of Laminated Rosewood Side Chairs Matched pair of laminated rococo rosewood Victorian side
chairs made in NYC. They feature open carved backs with a rose in the top
crest and a cluster of grapes and leaves in the middle. The nearly
identical chair is shown on page 94 of "American Furniture of the 19th
Century" by Eileen and Richard Dubrow. There are several small splits in the outer layers
of the laminations - very typical in chairs of this type. The fabric
on the seats is old. We could have them recovered in your fabric for an
added charge. A nice pair of documented Victorian chairs!

Rare Belter Rosewood Swivel Office Chair Very rare laminated rosewood Rococo Victorian swivel office
armchair made by John Henry Belter, NYC. The laminated backs have a "S"
scroll on either side with open carving at the top. The carving where the
arms attach to the frame is very similar to the armchairs shown on page 96
of "American Furniture of the 19th Century" by Eileen and Richard Dubrow. The
back and seat are all set to be reupholstered in fabric or leather. The
base has solid rosewood carved legs (some old solid repairs). When we
purchased this piece the top would swivel but not go up and down. We had a
small threaded piece professionally made so that it can now screw up and
down. We have never owned a office chair by John Henry Belter before. We
believe it to be one of very few made!
Circa: 1850
Dimensions: 39"H (at lowest setting) x 23"
Finish: Good old patina. Possibly refinished in the past.

Carved Oak Corner Chair Most unusual solid oak Chippendale style centennial corner

arms, a rope turned spindle under each arm and middle of the back, and open
carved back. It has three wonderfully styled cabriole legs ending in ball
in claw feet. The upholstered seat slips out and needs to be covered. We
could have that done in your fabric if you desired for an extra fee. This
style is most often found in mahogany. Very hard to locate one in oak!
