American Gothic Revival Rosewood Chair

mid-19th century, possibly by Alexander Roux, New York, the arched and padded back with a crocketed, leaf-carved crest, supported by tapered, ring-turned posts, raised on similarly turned legs.
h. 49-1/2", w. 18", d. 18"

In good condition. Two - 3"iron strap braces have been added to the back side of the chair. (Across the left and right joints where the crest attaches to the vertical side framing.) Appears to retain an old refinish with good color.
