The Side Chair by Gilbert Gaw is a black wooden chair. The chair has a back with 18 vertical slats that are evenly spaced and curve outward slightly at the top. The seat is flat and wide with a slight curve at the front edge. The chair has four legs that taper outward and are connected by two crossbars, one near the bottom and one in the middle. The chair's surface shows signs of wear and tear, with scratches and scuffs visible. The background of the image is light gray.
