Details

Ten Italian carved walnut chairs in the Arts and Crafts style made in 1880-1890 for Lord Barrymore for the long gallery of Fota House. Each bears the ornately carved arms and motto of the Barrymore family.

It is fitting that they should return to their original home, where they can be admired by Fota’s many visitors.
