The chair is a side chair made by Duncan Phyfe. The chair has a curved back with a carved design at the top, four tapered legs, and a rounded seat. The legs are turned and have a slight flare at the bottom. The back of the chair features a crisscross design made of thin strips of wood. The seat is upholstered in white fabric with a decorative fringe along the edge. The chair appears to be made of dark wood, possibly mahogany or ebony. The background is light-colored, and shadows are cast on the floor and wall behind the chair.
