Chair covered with batik parchment in red; white and black diamond motif; Chair made of coromandel wood resting on four legs. The front and rear legs are connected to each other by means of intermediate lines; which are connected to each other in the middle by a panel. The hind legs merge with the back posts that are crowned by monkey heads. The backrest is open at the bottom and closed at the top. The closed part consists of a panel that protrudes in the middle at the top in a semicircular shape with panels cut away on both sides that connect the semicircular shape to the back posts. The semicircular shape is glued on the inner edge with amboina root wood. Both the backrest and the seat are covered with batik parchment in red; white and black checkered motifs within a white border. The back of the backrest shows the letter H in the four corners; presumably the first letter of the name of the original owner.; Carel Adolph Lion Cachet; Netherlands; c. 1905 - c. 1915; parchment (animal material); h 97.5 cm x w 42.5 cm x d 43.5 cm
