Some losses and worm holes in one leg.

Provenance:
- Portuguese private collection.

A carbon dating of 2 samples from the chair provides a time frame between 1468 and 1635 and 1320 and 1428, respectively. A very similar chair can be found in the Metropolitan Museum in New York and is dated as being from the late 15th century (Inventory No. 27.225.1, illustrated by Otto Kurz. Folding Chairs and Koran Stands. Ettinghausen 1972, pp. 304-305, No. 10.). Another chair, stemming from the 14th/15th century, is part of the collection of the Museum of the Alhambra.
