    Thank you, this is an excellent identification and your knowledge is great. This and the Mulhouse make 100% sense, but as for antiques, I just may never know.

    I have seen a few pieces credited to Horner and it’s awesome to think this is similar in style or that name would be mentioned with my furniture lol. Have seen listing prices and they are high, high, high.

    Haha appears to be. Those are on the left side, on the right side crest there is just a simple “M.” Was curious what this one could mean too.

    They could be the initials of the two spouses, one spouse M with the lion crest, and the other JB with the wheel crest. Or the other way around, I don't know which is above which.

    True. Actually, it looks more like a pogo stick, for those old enough to know what they are.;)

    To all of those that thought it was a marriage bench, you are correct. I got ahold of the dealer (was purchased on a whim and a small eyes view in a storage unit with a mass amount of items in it so I didn’t get much info). He says it is Italian but there appears to be many contradicting opinions so far.
