[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 107568, member: 85"]Thoughts only. (And the correct words aren't yet loaded into the brain yet) I see quite a bit of repair. The metal angles on the left side. The four knobs on top appear to be different styles. The top rails as well as the two inside rails appear to be newer for support. First impression was a commode chair, but I think you are correct in thinking it isn't. All the ones I looked at had round openings to accommodate the chamber pot. It reminds me of a chair that would be found in a Gothic style church. I do not think this is Arts and Crafts. Is the chair nailed together? What type of nails - hand made or machine? Are the metal corners, (which I think were added later for support), are they screwed in? What kind of screws?[/QUOTE]
