拍品資料及來源
據家具專家胡德生所述（見《故宮博物院藏明清宮廷家具大觀》，卷1，北京，2007年，頁92），交椅連著扶手由圈形椅背順勢下垂，素以舒適見稱，多用於庭院及其他戶外場所，後逐漸衍生出以本品為例之「圈椅」，以作室內傢俬之用。圈椅及交椅另一相異之處，在於前者之直椅腿及硬座椅仍保留交椅設計之影子。明清時期圈椅廣受士大夫鍾愛，故俗稱「太師椅」。
圈椅多為光素無紋，本品靠背上各刻有一如意紋，既不礙作品之簡約設計，又為其增添一份典雅氣息。北京故宮博物院藏圈椅例品，可見於同上，圖版67-76；中國古典家具博物館故藏一作例，1996年9月19日售於紐約佳士得，編號41；Robert and William Drummond收藏一對素圈椅，刊於Gustav Ecke，《Chinese Domestic Furniture》，拉特蘭及東京，1962年，圖版106。一件相關作例曾展於Chinese Huanghuali Furniture From a Private Collection》，Eskenazi，倫敦，2011年，編號10。倫敦維多利亞與艾伯特博物館藏一作例，圖載於Craig Clunas，《Chinese Furniture》，倫敦，1988年，該書頁27亦收錄了出自Harry Garner and Lady Garner爵士伉儷收藏的摺椅。
