Antique Chinese chairs Shian Xia province

ITEM# 1418
Antique Chinese chairs Shian Xia province
Antique chairs,Chinese furniture. Fantastic assembled set of 6 antique Chinese chairs. This set of period Chinese chairs consists of 6 side chairs . Mid 19th century. They are made of huang hua-li wood (similar to elm). "This example represents a more normal proportioning of the more offical cap type of arm and side chairs. All their vertical lines bend inward as they rise, lightening the design; and the splay of the front legs is greater than that of the back. The projecting top rail helped to acommodate an ample width of fabric, which in earlier days was commonly thrown over both back and seat and allowed to descend toward the floor. In such cases, a footstool was often further provided. Thus equipped, the chair became a seat of honor fitting it for the use of some dignitary." See "Chinese Household Furniture" by George N. Kates, 1948, page 104, item #79, for an almost exact example.

Thank you for your quick reply. I am really shocked at the price. I knew many people here wanted it, but probably figured I didn't know what I had and they wanted to buy it for nothing. I am glad I held on to it.
Thanks again!
