Pair, Hepplewhite Side Chairs, Original Condition, Norfolk, Litchfield County, CT
Date/Period: Circa 1800


621-165_main

Measurement: Height: 37.75"; seat height: 16.5"; width: 19"; depth: 15.5"

Material: Cherry, white pine, painted, red stain

Condition: Fine original condition…

Additional Information: The unique design employed by the maker is
uncommon in 18th century Connecticut furniture. The flaring stiles combine
effectively with the flowing curves and delicate piercing of the cross rails.
The absence of stretchers, and diminutive proportions suggest a date of about
1800. The seat rails are tenoned through the back posts, a characteristic shared
with a matched chair published in Litchfield County Furniture published by The
Litchfield County Historical Society for an exhibition held in 1969; pages 26
and 27. The chair was found in Norfolk, where it had been owned for many years.
