<p>[QUOTE="Piece Dove, post: 412424, member: 6778"]The other member's chair was much more elaborate and I believe had the North Wind carved on top. I will not physically have this for a week or two. The chair is made of elm and leather. The top facing of the back of the chair is embossed leather. It is missing the end cap on the top of the right front leg. Hoping to find out: 1) approximate age of chair, 2) where I might find a replacement end cap. I read the Van Dyke's Restorers Catalog with the same passion I use to read the Sear's Christmas Catalog, but was unable to find anything similar. As always, thank you[ATTACH=full]143707[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]143708[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]143709[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]143710[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]143711[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]143712[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]143713[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]143714[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]143715[/ATTACH] for your insight and thoughts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
