STUNNING ANTIQUE GOTHIC RARE Hall Chair Cherub Barley Twist Early 18th C 118cm
Posted by admin On May 5, 2026
An exceptionally striking and unusually tall antique carved oak hall chair with cherub cresting and barley twist supports. A magnificent antique carved oak hall chair of impressive presence, featuring a tall 118 cm back, richly detailed hand-carved decoration, bold barley twist uprights, and an eye-catching cherub-and-flower crest rail. This is a highly decorative and atmospheric piece, ideal for collectors of Gothic, Renaissance Revival, Jacobean Revival, or ecclesiastical-style furniture. The chair has a dramatic silhouette, with carved foliate openwork throughout the back, turned barley twist supports, and detailed cresting with cherub figures supporting a central flowerhead. It has a strong sculptural quality that gives it real statement impact in any interior. In my opinion, this is an early to mid-19th century piece, or at the very least a genuinely old hand-carved chair in that tradition, showing excellent age, character, and patina. It is certainly not a modern reproduction. I have intentionally left the chair in its original condition to preserve its authenticity and aged character. The upholstery is worn and fragile, consistent with age, and could be replaced if desired, although it adds to the original feel of the piece. Condition: The chair is in honest antique condition with clear signs of age. There is historic woodworm present (now inactive), and an old repair to one leg. As a result, there is some movement/looseness in the structure, particularly around the front/leg area. For this reason, the chair is best suited as a decorative or display piece rather than for regular everyday seating. It displays beautifully and has excellent presence, but would benefit from structural reinforcement if intended for frequent use. A rare and characterful antique with strong visual appeal. The underside and construction also show old fixing methods including upholstery tacks / nails, along with signs of age and earlier repair work consistent with a long life. All of this adds to the authenticity of the piece rather than detracting from it. Approximate dimensions: Height: 118 cm Width: 50 cm Depth: 40 cm A rare and highly decorative antique chair with huge visual presence, superb carving, and the kind of untouched originality that is getting harder to find. An ideal piece for country house, Gothic, historic, theatrical, collector, or curated interior settings. Come in touch for a quote please.
