Maple and ash A wonderful example from an identified group of early 18th-century Rhode Island turned furniture… in period surface.
The chair is related to a group of gate-leg tables featuring legs turned with thin columns that suddenly bulge into two compressed balls, a design almost identical to the stretchers of this round-about chair. Although this chair probably postdates the tables by twenty years, the chair is clearly the product of a later generation of craftsmen active within the same period and location.
Item Date: Circa 1750
