If the front is wider than the back write in both measurements. F is the depth of the seat. G is the width of the back, at widest area. H (not shown) is the total length around the chair at the seat. If you have a parson with a shaped back, usually a scroll at the top you need to trace the shape of the scroll.

If you have a parson with arms you will need to measure the height, length and thickness of the arms. |
