Set of 6 Antique Queen Anne Oak Side Chair with Map Needlepoint Seat
$400.00Description
A striking example of Queen Anne style furniture, this solid oak side chair features the hallmark elegance of the early 18th-century design tradition. The gracefully curved cabriole legs terminate in beautifully carved claw-and-ball feet, a motif popularized during the Queen Anne and Chippendale periods that speaks to skilled craftsmanship of a bygone era. The rich, deeply grained quarter-sawn oak frame carries the warmth and character that only decades of natural aging can produce. What truly sets this chair apart is its remarkable needlepoint seat cushion, hand-worked with a detailed antique world map design. Visible geographic labels including 'South Atlantic Ocean,' 'Arctic,' and 'McKinley' suggest the map references a late 19th to early 20th-century cartographic source, adding a layer of historical storytelling to this already distinguished piece. The vase-shaped central splat and yoke-style crest rail are quintessential Queen Anne details that collectors and interior designers seek for period-appropriate or eclectic interiors. This chair is a conversation piece as much as it is a functional antique — perfectly suited for a study, library, reading nook, or as an accent in a traditionally appointed dining room. Its combination of authentic period form and the unique needlepoint map seat make it a one-of-a-kind find for the discerning collector.

Illadro Porcelain Duck Group Figurine with Reeds
Sculpture & Figurines
This charming porcelain duck grouping captures a serene natural scene with three ducks nestled among tall cattail reeds, rendered in soft celadon greens, warm taupes, and crisp whites. The naturalistic modeling and matte-to-gloss glaze transitions suggest European manufacture, likely mid-20th century in the style of Lladro, Goebel, or a similar quality continental studio. The composition is gracefully arranged on an oval naturalistic base, with each duck individually sculpted with expressive beaks and delicate feather detailing. The palette reflects the understated elegance characteristic of Scandinavian or Spanish porcelain traditions of the era. A lovely accent piece for a nature-themed display, a bookshelf vignette, or a curio cabinet. The pastoral subject matter and refined craftsmanship make this an appealing collectible for lovers of vintage decorative porcelain.
