<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ghopper1924, post: 9777418, member: 5170&quot;]Hi there.</p><p>We don’t know what you paid, so it’s hard to say whether you got a deal or not.</p><p>Traditionally, armchairs specifically for women are extremely rare and are characterized by a slightly smaller size and scale. I have seen only 2 women’s armchairs as a part of a full mid-19th Century parlor set in 15 years of looking. My supposition is that women either sat on sofas or sat on armless side chairs to accommodate their skirts.</p><p>A chair with screw-on legs is simply a newer chair, because that’s how they’re made these days. The value is basically what you pay for it.</p><p>Your chair is inspired by the Rococo Revival movement of the 1850s and 60s, but it is not an antique chair. I’m glad it’s comfortable. The value is what you paid for it.</p><p>If you want to see the rosewood chairs and parlor sets that inspired your chair, go to eBay and type in Meeks or Belter. These chairs represent the pinnacle of rosewood chair construction and carving. Even now, in the brown furniture depression, a Belter Tuthill King pattern armchair might bring $10,000.00. The quality is unparalleled.</p><p>Enjoy your chair![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
