546 David Deshler Chippendale mahogany dining chairs philadelphia, circa 1780 Including six side and one arm chair, each with pierced serpentine crest rail above three conforming slats on trapezoidal slip seat and square-turned legs joined by stretchers.

H: 38 1/4 in. provenance: These chairs were owned by David Deshler ( 1771-1792) a wealthy hardware merchant, importer of East Indian and British goods and used in his Germantown home, now the historic Deshler-Morris House, operated by the National Park Service. So successful and well known was Deshler that “As honest as David Deshler,” was a Philadelphia saying in the late 18th century.

Deshler arrived in Philadelphia from Baden, Germany in 1733 to work with his uncle John Wister. He married Mary Lefevre, from a prominent Huguenot family, in 1739 and built a home on High Street between 2nd and 3rd in Philadelphia. In 1751, Deshler bought land in Germantown and built a summer house there. Between 1772-1773, he dramatically improved the Germantown house creating one of the finest homes in the area. During the Battle of Germantown, the house was used by British General Howe as a command center and many of Deshler’s furnishings were damaged. These chairs were likely purchased to replace an earlier, ruined set . At Deshler’s death, in 1792, the house was sold to Revolutionary Colonel, Isaac Franks.

Col. Franks rented the house to President George Washington and his family during the yellow fever epidemic of 1793, and during the summer of 1794.

These Presidential occupations garnered the title “Germantown Whitehouse” for the Deshler home. The chairs have descended in the Deshler family to the present owner. $10,000-15,000

Where the Consignor is indebted to Freeman’s, Freeman’s may have an interest in the offered lots and the proceeds therefrom, other than the broker’s Commissions, and all sales are subject to any such interest.

11 No “buy” bids shall be accepted at any time for any purpose.

12 Any pre-sale bids must be submitted in writing to Freeman’s prior to commencement of the offer of the first lot of any sale. Freeman’s copy of any such bid shall conclusively be deemed to be the sole evidence of same, and while Freeman’s accepts these bids for the convenience of bidders not present at the auction, Freeman’s shall not be responsible for the failure to execute, or, to execute properly, any pre-sale bid.

13 A Buyer’s Premium will be added to the successful bid price and is payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase price.

The Buyer’s Premium shall be: 25% on the first $20,000 of the hammer price of each lot, 20% on the portion from $20,001 through $500,000, and 12% on the portion of the hammer price exceeding $500,000.

14 Unless exempted by law from the payment thereof, the buyer will be required to pay any and all federal excise tax and any state and/or local sales taxes, including where deliveries are to be made outside the state where a sale is conducted, which may be subject to a corresponding or compensating tax in another state.

15 Freeman’s may, as a service to buyer arrange to have purchased property posted and shipped at the buyer’s expense. Freeman’s is not responsible for any acts or omissions in packing or shipping of purchased lots whether or not such carrier recommended by Freeman’s.

Packing and handling of purchased lots is at the responsibility of the buyer and is at the entire risk of the buyer.

16 In no event shall any liability of Freeman’s to the buyer exceed the purchase price actually paid.

17 No claimed modification or amendment of this Agreement on the part of any party shall be deemed extant, enforceable or provable unless it is in writing that has been signed by the parties to this Agreement. No course of dealing and no delay or omission on the part of Freeman’s in exercising any right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right and waiver on any one or more occasions shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy of Freeman’s on any future occasion.

18 These Conditions of Sale and the buyer’s, the Consignor's and Freeman’s rights under these Conditions of Sale shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and Consignor and Buyer agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
