Antique Flemish Dining Room Chairs



Until the middle of the 17th century the style of Dutch and Flemish furniture was similar. After that, while Holland developed a style of her own, Flemish furniture followed French fashions. The wood chiefly used was oak and the distinguishing feature was a profusion of elaborate carving. Carvings often featured peasant scenes. The so- called Flemish scroll was prominent. These chairs feature many signature characteristics of the Flemish style. The cup and saucer legs and solid oak frames are sure signs of this style. Look at the rush seats. They are large, comfortable and in impeccable condition. Every inch of the frames is carved to perfection. Look at the medallions on the seatbacks; each one is carved with a delicate scene of provincial life. This set features two large captain style armchairs to be placed at the head of the table! Imagine how wonderful these chairs will look in your home! However you decide to use these treasures, you are sure to fall in love with their old world charm! c557oc443
