<p>[QUOTE=&quot;James Snyder, post: 9509291, member: 82375&quot;]Calling on anyone that can tell me anything.</p><p><br /></p><p>A few years ago, I acquired this giant, ridiculously heavy seat from a friend/neighbor&#039;s estate when she passed away. She had been an African art collector. After getting it, I sent out photos to a few random &quot;Antique furniture Experts&quot; and one was nice enough to write back and tell me that it was a &quot;Colonial Era African Sedan or Litter Chair&quot;. There is a small bench-like thing that goes with it that he said was used as a step to get in and out of it while it was being carried. I have not been able to find a straight answer online about when exactly the African colonial era is, so I really don&#039;t know how old it is.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reason that I am looking for info and advice is because I am moving next month, and my wife has laid down the law in saying that I am not taking it with us. So, I am trying to figure out if this is something I should be sending to an auction house, donating to a museum or just selling at a garage sale. If anyone can provide any info or suggestions, I would be eternally grateful.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
