- Lot Description
American, 18th century. A group of six Chippendale chairs in mahogany, each having an open carved center crest with flanking floral carving, terminating in swirl ears, over fluted stiles and a pierced carved splat, all joined by a shaped frame and a carved apron with fitted, upholstered slipper seat, all rising on well carved cabriole legs, and shaped stretcher supports, on claw and ball feet; ht. 38, wd. 20, dp. 21 in. (each).
This lot was purchased from the 1963 auction of the collection of Charles Newton, an employee of Henry Ford during the 1920 and 30s. Newton was instrumental in the development of the Ford Museum and Greenfield Village, working as a buyer of property and antiques for the institution. The collection was housed in 'The Queen's Residence' in Ypsilanti, Michigan, built in 1870 and modified by Newton to its current Classical Revival form.
Item is in good condition. Five chairs are in good shape one chair is missing splat which is present but broken and needs repair. Restorations to crest and throughout to each chair with professional repairs to crest, stiles and splats.Condition
