This is a very rare example of a caned chair with square cabriole legs. The closest related chair is an example advertised by John Gordon, Magazine Antiques, vol. 110, no. 6, December 1976, p. 1229. Glenn Adamson in his article “The Politics of the Caned Chair,” American Furniture 2002, ed. Luke Beckerdite, (Milwaukee, WI: Chipstone Foundation, 2002), pp. 174-206 illustrates several other tangential related chairs.
