Thanks for the replies. It is an interesting chair, to be sure :)
One more detail: I noticed that the bottoms of the legs are straight: the flares are metal and part of the casters.
EvelyB, what tells you that it's pre-1918?
OK, so from your replies and a little research, I am led to understand that it could be Edwardian, done in a mix of Adam and Hepplewhite styles....
Thanks for the replies. I am not an antiquer (or wasn't) so I don't know what it all means. I just really liked it . It has metal casters, yes.
I recently bought this chair form an estate sale -impulse buy! It has beautiful inlaid details. Can anyone tell me anything about it?
