<p>[QUOTE="ola402, post: 4395554, member: 182"]I guess you've heard enough, but my two cents worth. These chairs were made by Thomasville which is middle of the road quality, not too bad but not real good quality, definitely a lower price alternative for the budget minded. The chairs have been rode hard and put away wet. Would not be surprised if they were attacked by dogs and/or cats. Notice that the upholstery is just plain, no piping or other embellishments, likely whoever recovered them last didn't know how to do piping. In my book, these are very tacky and I would not waste time trying to sell them. You might get $5 from someone who is willing to recover the seats and paint them for some tres chic junk look until they can afford or find better ones. They are definitely not antique. I agree 1970s. Sorry to be so harsh. If the chairs had been treated better by their former owners, maybe they could have been salvaged.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
