Description

This charming antique ladder-back side chair is a genuine survivor, boasting a rich dark finish, three gracefully curved back slats, and a round upholstered drop-in seat cushion dressed in golden yellow fabric with a delicate repeating floral and cross motif. The turned front legs are connected by a classically styled stretcher, and a notable brass bracket reinforces one of the lower side stretchers -- a period repair that only adds to the chair's honest, well-traveled story. The underside reveals the original seat construction with tack holes and aged wood consistent with 19th-century American country or Victorian-era craftsmanship, likely walnut or a walnut-stained hardwood. Wear, patina, and minor surface scratches are present throughout and speak to authentic age rather than neglect -- this chair has lived a life and is ready for its next chapter.
