An antique English Windsor armchair featuring a steam-bent hoop back with a decorative pierced central splat. The back is composed of multiple turned spindles flanking the splat, all set into a thick, saddled seat made of solid elm with prominent swirling grain. A continuous wrap-around armrest is supported by turned uprights. The chair is raised on four turned legs. The construction employs traditional socketed joinery for the spindles, splat, and legs. The finish appears to be a dark stain over the mixed woods.
