AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Very beautiful and decorative little chair. It is a chair dating from the first half of the 20th century. It is made of oak wood. It has a high backrest and a low seat. The height is 80 cm, the seat height is 35 cm, the diameter of the seat is 26 cm, and both width and depth are about 28 cm. The weight of the little chair is approximately 3 kg.
The chair is a reproduction of an 18th or 19th-century hearth chair. You can see this in the through-mortise joint that is almost perfect. For this type of chair, 18th and 19th-century specimens used pegs to fix the legs. The legs have a slight curve, which is handmade by a cabinetmaker, who used a drawknife.
The chair still looks very good. Here and there there are a few small signs of wear visible (see photos), but those are natural signs of use.
The backrest is flat, and at the top there is a heart. Not only is this a place to lift the chair, the heart also symbolizes friendliness and hospitality.
The chair is very decorative and functional. It is still extremely stable, and not only can you sit on it, you can also use it as a pedestal or plant stand (see photos).
The chair is carefully packed and insured for shipping.
Seller's Story
I sell antique and vintage products. The items I sell are very diverse in nature; from lamps to side tables, from phones to wooden sculptures, from vintage kitchen equipment to Art Deco and Art Nouveau coat racks, and everything in between. The things I buy are usually objects that I personally like and that are of high quality. It sometimes takes effort to part with them!
My expertise lies primarily in products from the 20th century.
I ship in used boxes combined with paper filler material. The boxes are sturdy. Usually made of double-wall cardboard. I ship, unless otherwise agreed, always within two days of purchase. I attach great importance to friendly, decent and reliable contact with my buyers.
