You are viewing a wonderful set of 10 hand carved English George II style dining chairs. I hope the photos do this stunning set some justice, they’re certainly better in the flesh and would make for a great addition to any home, in fact they really are a set fit for a king.

The set consists of 8 side chairs and 2 side chairs. They have each been hand crafted from the finest mahogany wood. Observe the intricate hand carved details to the backsplat with leaf, shell and oggee motifs. A real feat of craftmanship and on every chair. The Chippendale ball and claw feet are also very intricately carved, as are the legs and the curled handles n the carvers. It’s breathaking when you consider how long each chair would take to create.

The joins are solid and tight, these chairs are solid and sturdy, comfortable to sit in and with a presence that will last for centuries and generations, making these a great heirloom.
