黃花梨圈椅流傳有緒,公私典藏俱存。然扶手、靠背板、聯幫棍流線靈動,翩然若舞,益以木質超卓,紋路華美,無處不渾然天成,如此者,則屬鳳毛麟角。本對圈椅紋飾瑰麗,雕工精絕,靠背板雕壺門形開光雙螭團紋,兩側拼出卷形托角牙子。相關造型之論述見安思考遠(R. H. Ellsworth)著 《Chinese Furniture: Hardwood Examples of the Ming and Early Ch'ing Dynasties》,紐約,1971年,頁86-87,以及王世襄著《Connoisseurship of Chinese Furniture: Ming and Early Qing Dynasties》,卷一,香港,1990年,頁43-45。傳世一對十七世紀黃花梨圈椅,靠背雕飾、卷口牙子造型皆與本相椅似,2017年3月16日經紐約佳士得「家族遺珍:瑪麗?泰瑞莎?L?維勒泰亞洲藝術珍藏」,拍品編號607。
