- Sack catalogue description: Queen Anne walnut slipper side chair with rounded stiles and crest rails, finely modeled shell in deep relief centering crest, vase-shaped splat and superb mellow patina. Probably made by John Goddard; this chair is a companion to the pair of chairs probably made by John Goddard, illustrated in American Antiques from Israel Sack Collection, vol. 3, p. 745, pl. P3319. It is, in our opinion, the most important Newport slipper side chair to have appeared on the market in recent years.
