Back in 1950 all but a few knowledgeable antiquarians would have removed all traces of the interesting paint history from this chair. Today we know better and can see traces of the original black as well as Victorian red paint beneath the later canary.

This chair was made in Philadelphia c. 1760-80 and is structurally original with nicely carved ears, early turnings and a comfortable saddle seat.
