A pair of 19th-century child’s or miniature wooden side chairs, comprising one ladder-back and one spindle-back example. These pieces are examples of 19th-century country furniture, constructed from light-toned woods typical of British vernacular traditions, such as ash, beech, or elm. The ladder-back chair features two horizontal slats and a solid, slightly shaped wooden seat, with turned front legs and plain rear uprights joined by a combination of turned and plain stretchers. The spindle-back chair is designed in the Windsor style, featuring a curved top rail over five vertical spindles and a solid seat, with turned legs connected by a simple H-stretcher. No maker’s marks, stamps, or labels are visible on either item.
