[QUOTE="Ghopper1924, post: 2555032, member: 5170"]Cool catalog. Looks like its from the 1890s. Without a label it will be very difficult to name the maker of this chair. I'd say it's mahogany ca. 1940, designed in the Duncan Phyfe late 18th/early 19th century Neoclassical mode. These chairs would have been matched to a table and possibly a buffet or other dining room furniture in the mid 20th century, the so-called "golden age" of dining rooms. If you've been following our furniture forum, you know that "brown is down," in other words, brown furniture is in a many years long-depression. Value for one chair would be minimal.[/QUOTE]
