Lincolnshire comb back Windsor side chair, probably by a Grantham maker, with curved crest rail, turned stiles, 6 long spindles, straight seat sides, 2 ring front leg turnings with vase feet, plain back legs and H stretcher WS 17
This chair shows all the hallmarks of a Grantham side chair though it is unsigned: it shares many features with figures NE 119 and NE 120 on p. 136 of Dr B D Cotton's The English Regional Chair (1990).
