press-back chairs (<chairs by form: back form>, <chairs by form>, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Chairs featuring an ornamental design pressed into its back. This effect is created by the use of a sharp steel die stamp mounted on a roller, passed over the chair with great pressure, resulting in a perfect impression of a design that was literally pressed into the wood, giving the illusion of hand carving. Press-back chairs were popular in the late 19th-early 20th century. |
