18th Century Great Chair, Ladderback Armchair, Flat Arms

Turned rear posts featuring outstanding finials joining three shaped slats above the trapezoidal seat; the front posts retain complete ball-shaped [mushroom] handholds. Of special merit are the carved flat or blade form armrests. The legs remain at full height and are joined by turned double box stretcher. The chair sports a coat of 19th century black paint... nice patina.
