<p>[QUOTE="say_it_slowly, post: 116483, member: 50"]I guess I'll mention that we have ladder back chairs that we have used for years and use everyday. We have some in natural oak/ash and some in solid cherry. Ours are plainer but some come with a good name. Some we bought new and some came from an auction. We didn't pay over $40 ea for any of them and we bought them when styles leaned more toward colonial/shaker than they do today. I only say this because it can be a lot of work to refinish a chair so that it looks good and I don't know how much return you can expect for your efforts. </p><p><br /></p><p>Hopefully these are popular where you are.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do like ladder back chairs and have a really old one I need to work on in the garage. It's probably 19th C and I paid $5 for it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
