<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jeff Drum, post: 1837783, member: 6444&quot;]This style was fairly popular in the US (where this was likely made), most often seen as a sidechair in tiger maple. I would call this a Classical Revival armchair (called Regency in UK as blooey points out). Based on style, it was first made in the second quarter of the 19th century. But the construction looks factory-made so not an early hand-made example and likely produced by one of the chair factories similar to Hitchcock that were producing chairs in that time period and until the end of the 19th century. Classical Revival continued to be a popular style, so saying exactly when it was made is not possible from this one far-away pic without examining construction details with lots of closeup pics and can be done in minutes in person, sometimes impossible from the internet. For now, I would just say likely 19th century (later is possible but less likely).</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is similar but earlier and more valuable handmade example c. 1820: <a href="https://www.skinnerinc.com/auctions/2699M/lots/137" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.skinnerinc.com/auctions/2699M/lots/137" rel="nofollow">https://www.skinnerinc.com/auctions/2699M/lots/137</a></p><p><img src="https://images.skinnerinc.com/full/807/1012807.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
