"Pair Of Elegant Cherrywood Dolphin Head Armchairs, Early 19th Century, Nicely Sized Sabre Legs"
Of a rare and beautiful decorative presence, these generous armchairs in pairs with sabre legs and dolphin-head armrests are of high quality and preserved from time, still have their straps; the horsehair trim and the velvet stamped with period motifs. Remarkably comfortable, a skilled upholsterer will be able to reupholster them to your taste without too much expense, because they are healthy and have not undergone successive padding and hammer blows, they are light seats, in cherry (wild cherry), solid, with strong decorative power and assured use by their comfort and robustness; the details of the sculptures show a great carpenter who unfortunately did not stamp his work. The front foot is in plume to receive the dolphin heads, the croce armrest is remarkable in finish and elegance, fleshy, very round and deliciously tapered, ending in a tail joining the amount of the backrest decorated with stylized scales, the top of the backrest is covered with a beautiful and discreet molded bar; the rear assembly in casing attests to the period (around 1820). They are authentic decorative and comfortable and solid; what more can I say.... Furniture treated against parasites... Notice to lovers of beauty and elegance...
