<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ghopper1924, post: 4390240, member: 5170&quot;]&quot;In the Manner of&quot; John Jelliff (headquartered in Newark, New Jersey) seems reasonable. These pieces seem to be the real deal. I&#039;d guess ca. 1860-70. When reupholstering them, look for silk damask. Expensive, no doubt, but you&#039;re caring for the best. Horsehair would have been the padding, not the fabric. The top center parts are called crests. The masks are called &quot;Jenny Linds&quot; or &quot;Brittanias,&quot; don&#039;t know if anyone has ever definitively said which.</p><p><br /></p><p>Top quality set![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
