Antique Victorian Barley Twist Side Chair

 


Design Plus Gallery presents a Side Chair in the Victorian Style. This antique is likely from the 19th Century with solid wood construction and elaborate design. The style is called the barley twist and references the spiral pattern as seen on its legs and columns. Barley twist, also known as barley sugar twist, refers to a decorative, spiraling or twisted design element, often found in furniture. It gets its name from its resemblance to the twisted shape of barley sugar candies, popular in the past. The seat back and seat cushion are covered nicely with a light pink fabric with repeating floral print. The chair has some lightened areas to the finish but is overall in good condition for its antique age.
