<p>[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 290253, member: 5066"]GOOD LUCK! on your sale. I am just a collector, i rarely sell anything unless it's to make room for a new piece i have fallen in lust with. You seem to be into chairs, i usually do not buy old chairs or beds, the only antique chair i own is Shaker. And, the only reason i have it is, shaker is the only known furniture that is 100% american designed, everything else we "borrowed" from other cultures and adapted. It's light as a feather & strong as iron but i can't even get the grand kids to sit in it for long (about 5 mins maybe, as soon as the novelty of leaning back on the tilters wears off, they gone). It's just not comfy to sit in but, it sure looks good!</p><p><br /></p><p>Shaker tilter side chair, birch with cane seat.
