Pair of Antique Chinese Yoke Chairs

Add a touch of refined character to your interior with this striking pair of late 19th-century yoke back chairs, a perfect blend of elegance and simplicity. Handcrafted from wood and originating from Shanxi Province, China, these timeless pieces exude authentic charm with their naturally distressed patina earned gracefully over time.

Known as "hat chairs" for their curved top rails once used to rest a hat while seated, they offer both aesthetic appeal and historical intrigue. The tall, sculptural backs create a bold vertical line that makes them ideal as statement accents in an entryway, hallway, or landing adding a refined sense of symmetry and history to any space.

Despite their age, the chairs remain in excellent condition, with subtle signs of wear and a really unique metal repair which only enhance their vintage character without detracting from their integrity. With a seat height of 52cm and total height of the back 104cm, they offer both beauty and practicality, perfect for the design conscious home. True Wabi Sabi style.
