    Bought these a few days ago, will receive them tomorrow.
    Someone told the that these are so called English-baroque chairs and these are rare in Central Europe. I don't know their age, because the pictures are bad.
    Anyone can help me?
    I will post better photos soon.

    When you get them, take a good look at the bottom. There should be no Philips head screws.
    Hard to say if these are old or made in the style of.

    Same from me. The best way to figure out age on a chair is to check the bits you don't see when it's in use i.e. the underside. I don't think the're 18th century, but beyond that...dunno.

    Nice pictures, I like the Blue Point the best.
    However, you neglected to post a picture of the bottom of the seat.

    Looks like Naugahyde, not leather, and reupholsted. I'm looking at the corners of the front of the chairs. Would leather have had such folds?

    As for the chair, i will take more pictures.
    The owner told me it's original leather. I don't know because i'm no expert. I don't have any leather material in my house, other then a couple of shoes.
