A set of twelve George III style upholstered mahogany dining...
covered in green velvet with foliate brass studs, with arched backs and sprung serpentine seats, with moulded front legs and plain stretchers, one stamped 'BUSBY'
Condition Report:
Generally good but typical old marks and scratches. One back slightly loose. Some brass studs missing. Velvet tired and with evidence in places of old moth, with treatment recommended. Well-made with beech frames, some separation to stretcher joins. An attractive set in country house condition; this set is good quality but Sotheby's would recommend that they be re-covered.
Provenance:
Possibly Henry Paget, 4th Marquess of Anglesey and 5th Earl of Uxbridge (1835–1898).
