Europe » Rare Pine Bishop's or Priest's Chair in Original Paint
Ref: 3330
A rare pine chair or throne in original paint from the Carpathian mountains. In some parts of Europe where the influence of William Morris never reached it is customary to replace tired furnishings with modern replicas and new pieces. This amazing carved and painted pine chair was recovered by us and and has been restored. Some spindles replaced but otherwise completely original condition and colour. From the Orthodox church.
