Does anyone know anything about this chair it looks like it was some sort of tacked seating but it's just the frame and very colorful.
Another chair (frame only) in my possession I know nothing about. | ||

Looks to be a late 19th century chair with some modern paint embellishments.
It was made for a hand woven cane seat-- the holes along the edge were used to weave the cane. Chairs were also made for pressed cane (significantly less labor intensive and easier to repair) and will have a channel groove along the edge.
Your chair has one edge of the holes cut, so it cannot be re- woven as it currently sits.

Thank you. I did notice that there was a piece broken off.
