Queen Anne Easy Chair

Massachusetts, probably Boston, ca. 1750.

Mahogany and Maple

Condition: Fine condition, minor imperfections. See full condition report.

The form of the wing chair with graceful and fluid lines is further complicated by the quality of the carving and construction of the pieces. The chair is supported by well-proportioned cabriole legs joined by finely turned stretchers, ending on raised-disc pad feet.

Provenance: Rosebrook Collection
