Description
MORRIS & Co: A MATCHED PAIR OF SUSSEX PATTERN SIDE CHAIRS, with bobbin turned back rails, caned seats and turned legs and stretchers (2). The iconic `Sussex` chair is perhaps the best known of all Arts and Crafts chairs. Available from the mid 1860`s, and thought to be designed by Philip Webb who adapted the design from a regional prototype. The chair is clearly most closely linked with the firm Morris and Co, however examples and near copies were retailed by a number of London stores during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
