Описание
This is a banister slat (the piece fitted in the centre of a chair back) for a Windsor chair and is made of beech. It is for a wheel back chair, so called from the wheel pattern in the centre, but has a solid boss ornamented with circular grooves instead of the spokes of a normal wheel back. Wheel back chairs are the most common type of Windsor chair and date from the end of the eighteenth century. It was probably made by a Chiltern bodger in the beech woods near High Wycombe (See 51/74, 51/75, 51/77)
