Holy cow !!! Those are so cool.
Really awesome looking, but not very comfortable!
thanks!
Why not have a look at The Horn Furniture of Herman Metz? : that's @ longhornmuseum.com.
Another name is Friedrich Wenzel (1827-1902) and William Mittman too!
I am amazed to see a whole suite of it. Thanks for sharing.
Some furniture just like this was featured on an episode of "American Pickers" , not long ago.
I'm looking forward to seeing it in Australia! Today I saw the California surfing episode. American Antiques Roadshow also had an article on it some years back.
check out antique roadshow archives, I believe they are worth alot of money
Actually there is a big auction with John Wayne memorabilia this week and he has one of these chairs in his collection for sale, along with some of his most famous things ever. Maybe look on line because I don't think they would allow me to post the link on line. I love the holstein cowhide. Beautiful !!~
