Chair
anonymous, c. 1620 - c. 1650
The back of the chair is heaving with richly carved decoration: interlaced strapwork with foliage and flowers, bunches of fruit, a cherub’s head and two lions bearing shields. The openwork back is ornamented with two rows of vase-shaped ebony spindles. The upholstery was taken from another chair.
