This chair displays the general form and detailing such as arm shape and turning profiles which are common to a number of Gloucestershire chairs. The carved linked lunettes on the lower rail are similar to those in the same position on a chair illustrated in Victor Chinnery, Oak Furniture, The British Tradition, Woodbridge, 1979, p.457, fig.4.86 and 4.87.
