Repetitive tendril, demi-acanthus leaf, and beaded borders; central apron rosette; straight, tapered, fluted legs are surmounted by flat panels which have rosettes for the front legs; ending in molded, carved cuffs - all carving details are gilded. The gracious arms are well molded & whorl carved at the sides before they sweep down to the seat. Note the notched crest rail providing additional visual interest & movement. Well shaped seat. Overall wear to the paint & gilding, particularly pronounced on the reverse of the back. As found upholstery. 25.25" w., 21.5" d., 38" h.
