Note

Marlborough legs on a chair refer to a style of straight, square, and sturdy chair legs, often found in mid-18th-century English and American furniture, particularly in Chippendale styles. These legs are typically plain but can also feature fluted carving or be slightly tapered. They usually terminate in a block foot, but can also be footless. Marlborough legs are a classic furniture leg style known for their simple, sturdy, and often elegant design.
