A pair of very smart looking Regency period 'Klismos' chairs, newly traditionally reupholstered in sumptuous haircloth fabric.
England, circa 1805.
Why we like them
These superb quality, wonderfully stylish Klismos chairs, embellished with ebonised patterns, is a particularly fine and rare design, executed in the finest solid ‘Spanish’ mahogany. Newly reupholstered in the luxurious haircloth fabric, these super smart chairs will be a very chic addition to an eclectic or modern interior. The seats are covered in John Boyd Textiles horsetail fabric, traditionally hand-loomed in Somerset, England, since 1837.
Design
Their highly unusual, superbly graphic profile with boldly scrolled legs, derives from the ancient Greek 'Klismos' chairs, often depicted on Attic pottery starting from circa 400BC. A very chic addition to an eclectic or modern interior.
