Description

This style of chair is known as the "official's hat chair" because the projections over the rear stiles resemble the knobs on the black hats once worn by high-ranking administrators in Ming Dynasty. The chair is high back and handcrafted and structured with wooden pegs and a tenon structure, which is the very traditional craftsmanship for furniture making in ancient China. Intricate carvings of traditional Chinese design motifs decorate the back splat of the chair. Both arms and back splats of the chair are crafted with deep curves. The front openings underneath the seat is uniquely carved into the "arch" shape. Made from elmwood, the chair is very solid and kept in excellent condition. Original patina and wear. Circa early of 19th century.
Size: W27.5" x D25.5" x H45.5"
