Lot 722 , A George II carved giltwood side chair,

A George II carved giltwood side chair, with green patterned silk upholstery, on acanthus leaf carved cabriole legs and whorl feet
Estimate £500-800

Overall condition is reasonable. The back legs have later corner blocks beneath the seat rails, the front legs retain their original corner struts, we would suspect the gilding has been done at a later date probably 19th / early 20th century so has certainly been there for some time, there are minor scuffs, marks and losses that have been gilded over as you would expect, the pale green upholstery is quite work around the front of the serpentine seat so will need re-upholstering.
