    I picked up these chairs yesterday. Very sturdy but also not sure of age. Look like an English made. The only markings is a letter S on the bottom. upload_2024-11-24_7-4-58.jpeg upload_2024-11-24_7-4-58.jpeg

    Could you include a photo of the mark and maybe an underside of the chair? It may help someone recognize it.

    This is the marking. It’s on all the chairs.

    I’m just now figuring out how to post a picture on here. But if someone wants more pictures please let me know.
    Thanks everyone for your input!

    Late to the party but yes English oak spindle back or sometimes called stick back.
    Quite common but good quality sturdy chairs.

    Thanks for the information. About the only thing I see in common is maybe the seat.
    Obviously someone got a great deal.
    Of course I definitely know they are worth a lot more than $35 each.

    I would have thought that the cost of an appraisal would surpass the value of the chairs.

    I doubt they'd bring much more than that in my Midwest USA suburban area.
    Good quality vintage oak dining chairs pop up with some frequency here.
    Hopefully, it's different wherever in the world you live. :)
