17th Century English Wainscot Armchair

$6,500.00

This exquisite 17th-century English oak Wainscot armchair stands as a testament to the era's masterful craftsmanship and artistic expression. The chair's standout feature, a carved daisy plant on the back splat, exemplifies the period's fascination with nature, skillfully rendered to give a sense of depth and vitality to the oak. Above, the crest rail showcases three more meticulously carved daisy wheels. The design gracefully incorporates scrolled arms resting on robust baluster posts, a harmonious blend of form and function that enhances its stately presence. These elements transition seamlessly to a planked seat supported by stout baluster legs, connected by peripheral stretchers for added stability, epitomizing the durable construction and aesthetic sensibilities of 17th-century English furniture. This armchair not only served as a functional piece but also as a decorative statement, reflecting the period's rich artistic heritage.
