From a local collection, a curvaceous pair of walnut Queen Anne side chairs from the early 1700s. The spoon backs have exaggerated curves in all directions in very much the height of style for the period. Exciting angles appear in all directions. The freshly covered slip seats are the best form, the so-called balloon seat. below, strong but graceful cabriole legs rest on full slipper feet.

These can be sensational flanking a period chest or table.

H. 40″, w. 20″, d. 20″. Dreams come true at $1200 the pair.
