Antique Tudor Dining Room Chairs



The period of European furniture known as the Tudor period is widely regarded as the age of oak. English oak cut from the heart of the tree was the principal wood at that time both for furniture and for buildings, although some of the other native woods were used to some extent. Strength and solidity were characteristics of the period, and furniture of great magnificence was made to furnish the important houses in England. Nearly all of that furniture was lost during the Civil War of the 17th century. There was a very limited amount of variety in furniture. The Tudor rose and linen-fold paneling are characteristic of this period. Tudor furniture retains the Gothic structure but adds much Renaissance carving and some inlay. These chairs feature many signature characteristics of the Tudor style. The solid oak frames are sure signs of this style. Look at the magnificent seats and seatbacks.
