Re: Carved Wood Chair

This piece is a late 19th century "Dantesca" chair, an variation of the "Savonarola" chair. The style gets its name from Girolamo Savonarola (September 21, 1452 – May 23, 1498), who was a late 15th Century
Catholic Monk often pictured seated in such a chair. His fame was his crusade against what he called "The Vanities". His followers collected up the things Savonarola claimed were immodest and held huge
bonfires. In 1498 they held the last bonfire of the vanities and burned Savonarola. While the original chairs were designed to fold, the reproductions of the Dantesca type do not. At auction they generally sell for a couple of hundred bucks
