Help identifying chair

Hello all. I’m new to this antique/vintage thing but I picked up a chair from an estate sale that I was wondering if someone could help identify. It was in pretty bad shape, no seat/back, no identifying marks or tags, and someone had started to put it back together with wood glue that dripped all over the legs. There’s also a mix of what looks like old nails and new screws holding it together. It also appears to be solid wood rather than veneer, with a coarse grain. I guess my main questions are:
1. Where/when is it likely from?
2. Is it worth trying to preserve the finish for restoring it? (ie is it a modern knockoff or something more interesting)

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

RJ Horner did some similar however I don't remember seeing barley twist stiles or turned legs headed with patera block supports? Screams more Continental -(French?) Victorian era. I would keep it! Lots of fun things going on.

 

Oak ca. 1900, derivative of the likes of Horner but certainly not by him or any top-of-the-line maker. Like most chairs it's not worth a whole lot, but if you like it than it's worth restoring!

 

I like it, a more rustic version of heraldic chairs.

Doesn't strike me as being from France-Belgium-Netherlands. Maybe Eastern Europe? But certainly antique.

 

Agree with Oak circa 1900.

 

Thanks everyone! I really appreciate the input. I’m definitely keeping it.

 

Spain or Spanish colonies. very typical lion heads.
