    Hi there!

    New on the forum here. Hope you can help. I bought a Windsor armchair last year but have difficulties dating it. Anyone that knows how old it is? And is it worth keeping it?

    It seems to have had some repairs in the past (to one of the armrests and the saddle seat).

    Thanks a lot!

    Jesse

    Welcome, Jesse. I've tagged a couple furniture experts for you. They may want additional pictures - like ones of the "repairs" you mentioned.

    Well, it's a multi-board seat with circular saw marks so right away I don't think real old, I would guess 1st half 20th century.
    It's not a traditional Windsor style, more like a MCM meets Windsor type deal.
    Where are you, where did you get the chair?

    Not old, 20th century. Worth keeping if you need a chair and like it. Value is quite low if you want to sell it.
