Possibly Unique Windsor Chair Snake head Carvings
A Very impressive and possibly unique Windsor chair it is in Ash, I am wondering if this chair has not been made by a typical Winsdsor chair maker as there isnt a single piece steam bent the top rail is a single piece of timber carved to shape as are the arms and mid back spindle support so made by a master craftsman furniture maker, it has four carvings of I believe snakes heads which are very detailed , the condition is excellent just a slight opening up of the joint in the seat, it has a good colour and Patina. I have never seen another one quite like it.
