<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 284055, member: 54"]Op's "picture 2" shows that the chair was poorly made. The top of the back is now out-of-line with wood on either side, meaning a lasting joint such as dowels or biscuits wasn't used, maybe just glue. The makers were after an elegant outer appearance and forgot about quality construction. Color of center top is way different too, suggesting a lasting finish wasn't used. I'm a furniture dummy but some of the issues on this chair kinda scream at you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
