I have had this chair about 31 years, my mother in law had it in storage for a long time too. I recently reupholstered this chair myself. I had refinished it myself some years back, 80's. The chair is low seated and broad. Seat is 14" off the floor and it is 26" wide. Any estimates to time period of this lovely chair with claw feet.
Your chair is the closest I have found to a chair that I have. It is similar with the back and bottom cushions and 2 toed claw feet. Mine had curving arms and rounded top above the back. But it came from around 1900. It was given to cousins as a wedding gift so I am guessing it was made in Rockford, Illinois as we were a huge furniture manufacturing city at the time. We had many Swedish furniture companies here and my family was from Sweden. You have a beautiful chair. We love ours.
Thanks Jeanna,
I would love to see your chair!!
I will let you know when I post it. Will try to get it done soon.
