    was at the local tip today and they had this lovely commode in their shop, was wondering if anyone could give a little information on it as I’ve looked around online a bit and can’t find any info. Is it modern or antique?

    Thanks in advance for any help :)

    probably converted - looks like it could be late Victorian - Eastlake style but not sure it isn't more recent made to look it....

    Definitely an old chair, circa 1890. Don't see how this could have been easily converted so might be the real deal. Poor thing has had most of its red stain stripped out. Likely birch but should be stained more uniform to mimic mahogany.

    This one looks similar in the design, motifs etc. Are you in U.K.?

    I was able to find some more pics of this one posted and it seems to be the exact same chair. If Scottish, would expect beech rather than birch.
