Rare Pair of 1930’s Dicon Nance Armchairs – St.Ives Studio


A very rare pair of beautifully, hand made solid ash wood ladder back carver dining chairs by the designer, Dicon Nance, the brother of Robin Nance in St. Ives, Cornwall. Both the chairs are in superb, clean and strong condition and all are complete with the original seagrass rushed seats, that are all intact and strong. They are very interesting cabinet makers who worked closely with Bernard Leach designing and making the famous pottery wheels and artist Ben Nicholson whom he made the canvas stretchers for his paintings. He also made all Barbara Hepworth’s sculpture and display stands, Dicon Nance was her assistant until 1971. A very rare pair of beautifully made 1930’s armchairs made by a very interesting Cornish maker. The seats are 44cm high.
