Chairs for the Saloon at the Royal Pavilion, Brighton

Chair being worked on in the gilding studio

This carved and gilded chair is part of a set that are being conserved and partially re-gilded. The chairs will be returned on long-term loan to the Saloon at the Royal Pavilion, Brighton, once the work is complete. The chairs were acquired by George IV and were in the Royal Pavilion in 1826 and were probably moved to Buckingham Palace in 1845–7.

Follow the chairs as they are worked on in our studios.
