Sheraton Wing Chair
New Hampshire
Circa 1815
Period Sheraton easy chairs are uncommon and desirable...

Considering the Chippendale style serpentine crest rail, this is a relatively early example of a Sheraton easy chair. The tall and slender form is quite desirable; almost a ladies chair. The narrow verticality is accentuated by extremely refined, and tall, delicately turned, tapering birch legs. The castors are original, a very nice feature. The already successful lines will be greatly improved by a competent upholster. (Height: 49 inches; seat height: 17 inches; width: 32.5 inches; depth: 32 inches.)
