Chinoiserie Heavy Back Dining Chair

This garden armchair is adapted from the Chinoiserie chair. The distinctive Chinoiserie design uses a traditional design developed from the work of Frederick Crace for his Master piece – The Music Room at the Brighton Pavilion c1818 for the Prince Regent. Frederick Crace 's grand father had been the first keeper of the Royal collection to George III and it is likely that Frederick had been influenced by the flood of oriental works of art coming into England at that time. In my Chinoiserie collection, the new classic Chinoiserie design is incorporated with the Hadham bracket used on the rail at the front of the seats and around the table rails.
