    You may already know the following but . . . the "tufting" on the chair is called "channel tufting/channel tufted." I have a favorite old upholstered armchair with a channel tufted back (but not a "channel tufted" seat). It is my favorite "reading" chair. ;)

    I'm guessing post-WWII but not by much.

    My first thought is 1930`s Hollywood Regency...But it sorta has an Art Deco look??

    Crazy thought, but the legs and the height of the back make it look like there's a rococo revival slipper chair underneath all that.

    Not crazy: those feet look 19th C.

    What if there were a Belter or Meeks chair under that? Holy smokes!!

    It might be worth finding out. if that wool cover needs to leave anyway.

    If Belter or Meeks it could be worth $$$
