<p>[QUOTE="Drew, post: 4482613, member: 3235"]No. 6185 is the Cushman 'Barrel Back Boudoir Chair' manufactured between 1936-43. The hole almost certainly done after, although it's not out of the question that Cushman custom made it for someone - they were a Quality family owned Vermont furniture maker. The spring slat looks of the era and is very much like the ones seen on their cushioned armchairs and couches, but two such springs would not support much weight. A typical sprung seat would have maybe 8-10 cross woven spring slats. I've collected Cushman for 25 years and not seen any such chairs from them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
