    22 1/2" high. Original condition. heart chair 1.jpg heart chair 2.jpg heart chair 3.jpg

    Also seen for sale online in various places under the description ice cream parlor chair, but this one has the label on the bottom, which says:

    Great Northern Plating Works 70 - 72 N. Carpenter Chicago Manufacturers of the Heart Chair Patented

    Searching that company, I find a circa 1911 reference to that address, but a 1914 reference to their plant moved to 2500 Ogden Ave, so perhaps that helps date this chair.

    Nice to have a label since most are unmarked.

    I should think it does. Would not have thought it quite that old but certainly possible. Chairs like this were made by many for decades, pretty much unchanged.
