Chair #180




ENGLISH CROOK ARMCHAIR
—Designer unknown

This is a very fine example of a walnut and burr wood George II style armchair, circa 1850. In the manor of Gillows, the scalloped back has an inset of silver coat of arms, and also sports those curvy cabriole legs we love. This would work wonderfully as a library or desk chair.
