A very charming antique late 17th century William & Mary period carved oak wainscot child's chair, Yorkshire, circa 1690.
A darling chair made for a child during the reign of King William & Queen Mary (1689-1702) from Yorkshire, most likely Leeds, the back having a twin scrolled top crest with a central 'pear' shaped finial, to the sides are incised carved 'ear' shaped brackets. The tall back having a deeply carved back panel with a central floral motif flanked with fruiting vines and stylized oak leaves, below is a small Fleur-de-lis design to the base. The seat has been covered with leather sometime in the 19th century, the legs are turned with balusters & blocks and there is a high stretcher allowing the infant to climb ladder like to be seated.
