A fine Windsor sack back arm chair, attributed to Amos Denison Allen of Windham, CT circa 1790-95. This dynamic Windsor has an American folk quality to it. A.D. Allen apprenticed to the prolific Windsor chair maker, Ebenezer Tracy of Lisbon, CT . Though this chair is not branded, it stylistically displays all the basic design characteristics of the Tracy workshop. However, Allen added his own individual personality to the chair by more aggressive and bold design elements; the swelling of the spindles near the seat, a dramatic splat to the legs, making for a powerful chair design. The 19th C. black paint sits over the original green paint.
