Abstract:
In the collection of the South Carolina Library in Columbia, South Carolina, is an armchair made for the Royal Governor’s ceremonial use in the first State House. The chair survived a disastrous fire and is a rare example of an unrepresented period of Charleston’s chair-making. Some of the chair’s emblems are often seen on furniture from the Albermarle region of North Carolina.
