Featured Old Chair and foot stool

I have been trying to find out about this chair. Does anyone know anything about it? really neat back.

 

What a lovely thing ! Im just guessing here,but I think its a later copy of a Regency style. The bottom back makes me think maybe 1930s ? Wait for the furnies to chime in .

 

Boy, that is unusual! What a fun piece.

Agree, wait for the furniture folks to stop by.

Meanwhile, if possible, go back and edit your photos by clicking on "Full Image".

 

Tapestry is later than the chair, I suspect. Stool tapestry looks ok. The chair back is good for nineteenth century, but the legs and base are a tad clunky.

Can you show the underneath of both seats and the underneath of the feet please?

Where was this found?

 

There is a tag saying it was redone at A-1 Furniture & Upholstery in the Bronx. There is no zip code on the address on the label and zip codes were assigned in 1965.

The good ol thrift store!

Always helpful to hit "full image"

 

Where is the " full image" button?

 

Can anyone read the street address? 1027 _alto_ Avenue? Thought it might be "Walton" but not an 11 story building.

Thank you, much easier to see everything this way.

 

1027 Waltol Avenue, I assume that is the address of the owner back then.

 

There is no Waltol Avenue in the Bronx. I suspect it's "Walton" but 1027 not an 11 story building.

Six story building but it does have apartments numbering "11." Built 1927 so that's your earliest date for restoration and/or upholstery. Middle class address off the Grand Concourse.

ok, Thanks.

 

Hi, Still hoping to find out any information on this chair.

 

Think Edwardian era and possibly Italian. At the very least, don't think this is American.

 

My thought was Italian or French. Not English. I think earlier than Edwardian, might even be period for the style.

 

Thanks!
