Thomas Chippendale was an English furniture and cabinet maker working in the 1700s who’s name is probaly most famously associated with Chippendale Chairs. Chippendale Chairs typically feature ball and claw feet and ornately carved backsplats with a chunky feel. Chippendale also made chests, desks, cabinets and other pieces of furniture. His enduring style was produced in workshops in both Britain and America since then. The Chippendale legacy can be seen in the intricate Gothic, Rococo and Chinese inspired chair backs assoociated with mid – 18th Century furniture. As Chippendale’s designs were taking hold so the Neoclassical style emerged and was evident in the light elegant chairs of the late 18th Century. In Britain it was later interpreted by George Hepplewhite and Thomas Sheraton.
The chairs are 8 Chinese Chippendale Gothic dining chairs. They have a lovely Gothic look with the hand carved backspat – there are further carved details on the legs and arm rests.
