A Pair of Maryland Armchairs
-
Description
These big and handsome Maryland arm chairs exhibit the boldly shaped crest rails, ears and fluted stiles that are characteristic features of the best examples from the period. The weight of the framing, scale, lack of through tenons and style of the acanthus carvings and ball and claw feet are also consistent with chairs with histories in and around Baltimore. Chairs with similar characteristics have been associated with Baltimore cabinetmakers Gerhard Hopkins and Robert Moore.
