<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 396209, member: 37"]Very interesting and unusual chair. Late Victorian, circa 1890. Hard to say what style it is. Sort of a variation on stick and ball but NOT stick and ball. Not sure I would call it Aesthetic either, as I don't know where it would have borrowed any of the motifs from. Another vote for no paint. Oak and meant to show it. I would not go crazy polishing that brass. Maybe shine up the high areas lightly and let the dark patina stay in the crevices.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
