This is a good quality set of their time but we are unsure of their exact maker, age, origin etc. That said it is a well made set with a good bit of age to it. They are each stamped on the underside but it is hard to make out. It is possibly "LH" but could not be sure. The stamp looks like the letters only cover half of the box shape as such so may have letters missing.
Depending how you look at it and on which chair it could be GH or TH or HH etc. It was suggested that these were genuine hepplewhite chairs but we have no proof of this.They do appear to be very early antique chairs but we are not experts in that era. They appears to be made from oak wood but we couldn't be sure. The fabric upholstery is a crushed velvet type in a rust / copper colour. They are sturdy chairs still but do have a few minor splits in the wood mainly on the undersides from re-upholstering etc and nothing. They have generously sized seats typical of that era.
95cm high x 53cm wide x 48cm front to back. The seat depth is approx. 40cm with a seat height of 44cm. This is a pre-loved antique set of chairs so they shows general signs of use and age with some marks scratches and wear and tear in places.
Nothing too drastic though of that couldn't easily be rectified or just lived with. Please be sure to check the photos to judge the condition for yourself.
