Set of four carved walnut dining chairs, in the manner of Daniel Marot, 18th century.
Description
Carved walnut frames exhibiting the French-Baroque and Dutch influences associated with Daniel Marot: chip-carved top rails, pierced C-shaped splats, and arched seat rails.
Scrolled, chip-carved forelegs terminating in gadrooned feet.
Newly recovered in luxury Dark Beige fabric by Zimmer + Rohde — Hodsoll McKenzie - Banjara RE.
Condition
Substantial historic and later repairs throughout, most notably on the backrests.
Chips and small losses to the frames in several areas across most chairs; some original moldings are missing.
Evidence of historic woodworm activity; no active infestation noted at inspection.
Structurally reasonably sound for use in current condition — chairs are fairly sturdy and should be serviceable as presented. Further conservation or sympathetic restoration would improve longevity and appearance.
Dimensions
Height: 113 cm
Width: 56 cm
Depth: 44 cm
Notes
These chairs carry strong period character and decorative appeal despite their losses and repairs. They are well suited for someone seeking authentic 18th‑century style.
