<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sedona, post: 227769, member: 4438&quot;][ATTACH=full]68299[/ATTACH] Hello, everyone. We received this chair through family members, already upholstered like this. My best (uneducated) guess is that it is an Eastlake style armchair, made of walnut, based on the light carvings. But, the chair also has a few design elements that I have not seen on other Eastlake armchairs. First, the top has a scroll, and the wood itself is not across the top of the chair. That is, the wood does not &quot;frame&quot; the upholstered back, as I have seen on many Eastlake chairs. Second, the spools (if that&#039;s what you call them) on the arms are unusual. I have typically seen an arm that is open altogether, or a &quot;closed&quot; arm on an Eastlake armchair.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do not know if it is English or American, or if it originally had casters. It is on my hardwood floor so I put the adhesive felt bottoms on it. One of my family members bought it at an antique store decades ago, and had it reupholstered fairly recently.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not crazy about the upholstery, but it is done well and in excellent condition, and it does make the wood color stand out. The chair is also very comfortable and sturdy (which I can&#039;t say of all of my other antique chairs), and it is larger (about 39&quot; high) than many of my other antique chairs. Also, I keep the chair in a sitting area in a bedroom, and not in the living room, so no one other than family sees it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Any feedback or thoughts would be appreciated.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]68295[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]68296[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]68297[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]68298[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
