<p>[QUOTE=&quot;verybrad, post: 216976, member: 37&quot;]I will expound on my reply a bit since you are not getting any further input.&nbsp; Your chair is not typical here in the US but is a type I have seen before occasionally.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know of any historical precedence for it which is why I really don&#039;t know what else to say about it.&nbsp; Some of the details are French but it just doesn&#039;t scream French to me.The chair seat is stretched Spanish leather but it doesn&#039;t look particularly Spanish to me.&nbsp; Italy is known for producing chairs using French details and a lot of chairs were imported from Italy in the 20th century.&nbsp; This is why I thought it might be Italian. It could just as well be Eastern European as some odd-ball pieces come from there as well.&nbsp; Something about that rounded back says Dutch to me but I don&#039;t see anything else indicating it might be Dutch in origin and would discount that idea out of hand.&nbsp; The carving is not the highest quality and the styling is such that the idea came to me that it could be colonial in origin but the wood doesn&#039;t seem to fit with that idea.&nbsp; The wood appears to be beech or similar fairly non-descript wood and that would fit with it being European in origin.&nbsp; It does seem to have some age to it but it is difficult to tell much from a single picture.&nbsp; Perhaps some more pictures would provide more clues to go on.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
