VIRGINIA ATTRIBUTED WALNUT SLAT-BACK SIDE CHAIRS, SET OF SIX, each featuring a rectangular back, slightly flared at the top and having chamfered rear edges, with five vertical narrow slats set into an applied cove-molded shoe, above a trapezoidal slip-seat, raised on Marlborough front legs chamfered on the insides, and slightly sweeping back legs, joined with an H-form stretcher, and rear stretcher. The medial stretcher is set into a half-dovetail dado, which is exposed on the bottom. All have matching molded edges to the seat rails and front leg corners. Each originally had vertical glue blocks to the rear and triangular glue blocks to the front. Each with a poplar seat frame original to the complete set and having modern upholstery. Chairs are incised I, III, IIII, V, VII, VIII, and the only seat frame with a visible incised mark reads IV. All retain an early, some possibly original, surface with a warm color. 1780-1810. 36 3/4" HOA, 19 1/2" x 15 1/2" seat.
Catalogue Note: These chairs are undoubtedly from the same shop and likely from the same larger set. The only difference is the noted variation of the back bead vs. molding. Colonial Williamsburg has a single chair with identical features, object number 1986-59, which they list as having a Long Island, NY, or Virginia origin. The Virginia recovery/collection history of the present set strongly supports the Virginia attribution.
This set directly relates to a set recently sold from the Lee Winborne estate collection, Roanoke, VA. Jeffrey S. Evans and Associates, 6/22/2024, lot 2284.
Condition
Most in good, solid condition with scattered surface wear. One has had its back stretcher broken at the mortise and repaired with a patch to the stile where it meets the stretcher; another has had its proper right stile broken at the seat rail junction and part of the bottom was broken and repaired with new wood; others with minor scattered expected shrinkage cracking and minor repairs. Most retain recent blocking which is fairly reminiscent of the original blocking. Several of the seat frames have fairly significant damage and older repairs but are all solid enough for use.
