Painted Windsor Chair

A Windsor armchair associated with a style firmly rooted in the West Country. The circular sculpted ‘disc’ like seat is a design feature generally associated with ‘Goldsmith’ Windsor chairs. (a style of Windsor once owned by 18th Century author, Oliver Goldsmith, now in the V&A)This example conveys a greater naivety with the sculptural sweep and curve of its exaggerated balloon like bow. These features are further accentuated by curved out turned arm supports which help to exaggerate the volume of its upper half. The egg and reel turned legs are joined by a simple tapered H-stretcher.The presence of this sculptural folky survivor is further accentuated by its remarkable state of preservation, a dry undisturbed tactile paint history while retaining its full height without insect damage or rot. The overall effect produces a rare and beautiful example of a museum quality rarity, seldom seen in the market.
