專家說明


These imposing armchairs display several features characteristic of Irish furniture as noted in The Knight of Glin and James Peill, Irish Furniture, New Haven and London, 2007, p.209, no.17, namely the squared paw feet and the fetlock incised to resemble hair. The legs display bold shells and in addition the stretcher is secured by means of small wedges that tighten the joints with the legs.
