Antique Hepplewhite Dining Chairs

We get very nice antique chairs in stock on a regular basis but a very popular design is the Hepplewhite design. It is difficult to find original Georgian hepplewhite antique furniture but we often do get Hepplewhite design from the late Victorian or Edwardian period.

Only this week we have two sets in stock

The first is an antique set of six Victorian mahogany chairs and they are in the Hepplewhite design. This lovely set have shaped curved backs with pierced back splats and stand on splayed back legs with tapered front legs. The second set is a set of 8 antique Edwardian mahogany dining chairs and they are in the Hepplewhite style with shield shaped backs and beautifully carved back splats with a wheat sheaf design. The antique chairs stand on splayed back legs and have tapering moulded front legs

Because they are later Edwardian and Victorian copies they are very reasonably priced as original sets can cost many thousands of pounds to buy.
