This classic design of Windsor chair is known to have been made by a number of highly-regarded makers in the Thames Valley region including Richard Hewitt (fl.1777) and John Pitt (fl.1759), both from Slough. Characterised by the use of the cabriole leg, these chairs are often yew with an elm seat, but this large, well-patinated example is made from cherry with an elm seat, and has the remarkable attribute of still being in absolutely original condition.
