[QUOTE="ElmCottageDecor, post: 4012011, member: 20082"]Hello! New member here. I picked up an awesome little chair at my local Habitat for Humanity ReStore for $15.00. I'm not familiar with this brand but it was obvious the chair was old and interesting and well-made. Underneath it has the oval Cushman Colonial Creations logo and the model number 4-125. A few questions for you knowledgeable people... 1) Can you tell how old it is? So far I've figured out that this line of furniture was made from 1933 to the early 60s, but I don't know if 4-125 narrows it down or not. 2) Is the wood maple? That was my guess, but I'm not sure. 3) If it was just any old chair, I'd try to refinish it... But is it more desirable as-is? It's just weird because the underside of the seat is much darker than the rest of the chair. I'm not sure what the finish looked like originally. Thanks for any info you can provide!
