[QUOTE="judy, post: 973480, member: 965"]Hi Uriema! These chairs I think were still popular in the 1950's and later. My chairs were in excellent condition when I purchased them, and I have kept them so. I've stripped so much furniture in my lifetime, that I wouldn't paint an antique or vintage piece unless it was not worth anything more than a dime.....or two! :cat: I did antique (paint) two oak pieces 35 years ago. I don't like oak, and have never been sorry that I painted them. I still have them, and use them daily. However, I feel sorry for the next person coming along that would like to restore them. You have to decide on what to do with your chairs. Remember that paint chips over time.........just saying.[/QUOTE]
