介绍（中）	这把椅子的细长比例和弱化的细梃表明了人们对进步的英国艺术家具的认识，尤其是英国建筑师、所谓英日风格的创始人E.W.Godwin（1833-1886）的家具。它经常与H.W.Batley（1846-1932）设计并由英国Collinson&；锁在1876年费城百年展览上。赫特兄弟的解释，背面有一块雕刻的花朵，顶部栏杆上有漂浮的花朵，显然是自己的。这些椅子在概念上轻盈而线性，黑檀木暗指日本漆，有环形翻转的腿、重复的纺锤和细长的立柱，摒弃了特定的欧洲历史参考，而是采用了一种新的美学，至少在精神上源自日本的装饰艺术和建筑。像这样的乌木椅子通常由该公司成对制作，与卧室套房一起使用。这把椅子的伴侣收藏在休斯顿美术博物馆。展示封面是一个替代品，复制了Bruce J.Talbert设计的记录织物。
介绍（英）	The slender proportions and attenuated stiles of this chair proclaim an awareness of progressive British art furniture, especially that of E. W. Godwin (1833-1886), the British architect and originator of the so-called Anglo-Japanese style. It is often compared with a similar chair designed by H. W. Batley (1846-1932) and displayed by the British firm Collinson & Lock at the Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition of 1876. Herter Brothers' interpretation, with a panel of carved flowers across the back and floating blossoms in marquetry on the crest rail, is distinctly its own, however. Lightweight and linear in conception, ebonized to allude to Japanese lacquer, with ring-turned legs, repeated spindles, and elongated uprights, these chairs abstain from specific European historical references in favor of a new aesthetic derived, at least in spirit, from Japanese decorative arts and architecture. Ebonized chairs such as this were typically made in pairs by the firm for use in conjunction with bedroom suites. The mate to this chair is in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. The showcover is a replacement and replicates documented fabric designed by Bruce J. Talbert.
