Description
A good example of an early 19th Century Tavern Settle, most likely originating from the Westcountry. It has a lovely patina with a thick elm seat, traditional wing shaped arms and a curving back made from three wide elm boards. It comes with a later upholstered cushion, fitted to the curve of the seat.
It is in good condition for its age and it has developed the most wonderful patina. There have been a few old repairs over the years but nothing untoward and it is strong and sturdy. There are signs of age and use, some marks and knocks and minor old shrinkage splits but nothing detrimental. There are some signs of old worm in places but it has all been treated as a precaution and hasn't affected the piece structurally or aesthetically. The settle has been cleaned and given a gentle polish and is ready for use.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
