    Hello all,

    I bought this chair at an auction about 15 yrs ago in the UK. The wood is lovely and the chair has a Chippendale style to it. I think it's an antique and not a reproduction but I would love to hear what you think???

    It doesn't work and I don't even have the option "full image" so I can't reduce the size - feeling frustrated

    Reproduction, still a very nice roundabout chair, it just doesn't look period (18th century)

    Well, for one thing, the seat is caned, you would not see that in a period chippendale piece, the mirror finish on the wood for another. It's appearance just doesn't look 18th century to me in photos.
