Gorgeous set of five Jacobean Revival oak dining side chair. These solid wood chairs are early 20th century and feature a carved beautiful repeating pattern of flowers and swirls and lines, all in a beautiful dark stain. While they are unmarked, these are likely from Kensington Furniture company, early 20th century.
There is a homemade tag on the bottom of one (remnants on all the others) that reads "one of six chairs belonging to Mrs. S.W. Corman, 9 Rittenhouse Rd." Corman was in advertising who turned to development. In 1928 he and wife Anna M. Corman moved into the newly completed house at 9 Rittenhouse Road. The house was constructed as part of the Corwood development abutting the Siwanoy Country Club and west of the downtown of Bronxville, NY. Corwood was a project of the Corlando Corporation, which had S. Wilbur Corman as its president.
