Painted furniture has been around for hundreds of years
Surprisingly some of the dark oak furniture we see from the
17th & 18th centuries was in fact quite brightly painted when new.
Much of the elegant drawing room furniture of the 18th century was painted in pale greens, blues and greys
Gilded black lacquer was the height of fashion in Regency times
Country furniture such as Windsor chairs were often painted dark green or red and in America, painted styles such as "Pennsylvania Dutch" took their influences from old Europe.
They became a distinct style of their own and with that in mind…
we have called our new painted chairs
"The New England Chair"
Carver: £275
Side Chair: £225
The nice thing is…. You can take any piece from our range of country furniture and have it painted (or part painted) to sit happily
with these new chairs.
Painting gives a whole new look to any piece
in our huge range of furniture.
We have suggested a few colours… but feel free to come up with your own…
Farrow & Ball and Fired Earth seem particularly suitable.
Bylaw suggested colours:
F&B: Eating Room Red, James White, Studio Green, Olive
Fired Earth: Duck Egg Blue
Chairs shown painted in
