Summary
A child's size, late 19th or early 20th century reduced version of a 'country' style wooden dining chair with 'sabre' legs and a rushwork seat. The chair is possibly made from beech or fruitwood and is 'ebonised' (stained to mimic ebony). The 'sabre' style legs are supported by four stretchers. There is a shaped top rail and three shaped splats.
