Fantastic late 18th century Welsh low stick chair, one of the best and most original I’ve ever seen in the wild. Thick, well patinated elm seat with all original ash spindles, standing on three original chamfered legs designed to stand steady on uneven cottage floors. Retaining layers of old paint in the less exposed areas, around the base of the spindles and the underside of the seat- mostly a crusty dark brown but with some very faint traces of a chalky, powder blue, when viewed in direct light. Some lovely little details and quirks, such as the one leg that protrudes through the seat and the slightly too long spindle which no one ever got around to sawing down at the back. H 62 cm x SH 28 cm x W 35 cm x D 29 cm
