The first photo was taken in in Sittingbourne, Kent, England, the second photo was taken in Canada. He emigrated to Canada in 1905, he worked on the railway construction at Arrow River, MB. The photo that I posted earlier of the railway crane was his photo

Admittedly I hadn't either until I saw one at a local museum, I think Brinybay got it right that it was meant for women. I can not find mention of these chairs having a connection with sword wearing. It is always possible that designers just liked the concept & that they have no real purpose.
Maybe I should repost these two photo's as an unsolved furniture mystery.
Thanks for the love, bratjdd?
