The crest with a central carved shell over fluted stiles with a solid splat. The shaped arms with carved scrolled knuckles supported by modeled arm supports over a trapezoidal shaped seat. Cabriole legs with acanthus carved knees terminating in ball and claw feet. The rear legs are of stump/round design. Very early surface. CONDITION: Appears to retain original ash seat frames. First armchair has one knee return replaced and a repair at proper right arm at juncture of arm and stile. The second armchair has one replaced glueblock, one spur on splat replaced and a repair at juncture of arm support and arm on both sides. These extremely rare chairs survive in fine condition. They are slightly broader and larger than the norm which suggests that they were to be used as a parlor chairs rather than a pair of armchairs to compliment a set of side chars. PROVENANCE: Joe Kindig Antiques.
