An assortment of four odd chairs comprising a pair of mid-century modern hoop-back dining chairs, a rattan armchair, and a pine kitchen chair. The pair of dining chairs are the Quaker model produced by Ercol, featuring steam-bent hoop backs with six vertical spindles. They are constructed with solid figured elm seats and beech frames, set on tapered splayed legs joined by an H-stretcher. The mid-20th century rattan armchair is of casual bohemian style, featuring a bentwood rattan and bamboo frame with vertical cane spindles forming a fan-shaped back and integrated armrests. The joints are finished with decorative cane bindings. The farmhouse-style kitchen chair is made from solid pine, featuring a shaped top rail over four turned spindles and a solid seat with prominent knots, supported by turned legs and an H-stretcher. No labels or marks were observed during inspection.
