Description: | A small, low chair, made of fir wood from the Aberdeenshire area. The seat is wider at the front, but there are no arms. The chairback has no crest, but is flat. A carved panel on the back is decorated with: WD E2 1687 ('E2' looks more like E and a reversed S). It may be a nursing chair, notes from museum's file: ' This is a little nursing chair from Huntly made of home fir, made so slight that cross-straps have been added and the smith has reinforced the back' In another context Taffy refers to this chair as being bought at Benrinnes in the last year of the last war
