Rare 17th Century Charles II Style Walnut Chairs - Potential "Nell Gwyn" Connection
A unique opportunity to acquire a pair/set of 4 striking antique walnut chairs, likely dating to the 17th century, in the style of the Charles II period. These chairs feature exquisite barley twist legs and supports, along with ornately carved frames indicative of fine craftsmanship from the era.
The upholstery is a later addition with a distinctive textual design. Of particular interest is a potential association with the renowned figure of Nell Gwyn, suggested by the "Rose" detail in the description and historical context of similar pieces.
These are substantial and historically significant pieces of furniture that would make a statement in any discerning home or collection.
Price: £1000 for the set of 4, or £300 each.
