<p>[QUOTE="CliffDK, post: 4496515, member: 77207"][ATTACH=full]392753[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]392754[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]392751[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]392752[/ATTACH] Hi, just joined this forum which looks to be really interesting. This is (pics) a drop-in seat for supposedly early 19thC dining chairs. I have just starting stripping them down to refurbish and re-cover, and discovered that the edges of the seat look to have a reed/straw seat-roll. The main seat is horse hair on webbing base, but I can't find out anything about this type (reeds) of seat padding construction, and hope somebody here may be able to throw some light.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
