[QUOTE="daveydempsey, post: 13121424, member: 22"]They are a pretty standard chair from the early 20th century Very usable and sturdy. They have obviously been previously painted and then stripped. If they have been submerged in warm caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) then its best you check every joint because this method besides stripping paint and varnish also strips any glues or adhesives from the item and can make them fall apart.[/QUOTE]
