<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 245051, member: 44&quot;]Oh my, I&#039;m green with jealousy over this sack-back Windsor. I think you may have a prize. I can&#039;t tell region of origin. Following is a link to skinner Windsor chair auctions. One of them is presumably a NYC c1785-1790 sack-back. It looks very similar to yours with differences in the leg turnings. The strechers seem to have identical turnings to yours. There is only one pic. Wish there more to better compare with yours. The one in the link, looks like it may have been refinished or at least repainted? The first page at the bottom has auctions for New England sack-backs.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lot 380 is said to be NYC 1785-1790.</p><p>Lot 101 &amp; lot 102 New England late 18th century</p><p><a href="https://www.skinnerinc.com/search?s=Windsor+chair" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.skinnerinc.com/search?s=Windsor+chair" rel="nofollow">https://www.skinnerinc.com/search?s=Windsor+chair</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Do note Lot 101 is black with remnants of yellow stripping. I believe yours has remnants of yellow stripping on the leg turnings. I can&#039;t tell if the seat on your chair is saddle shaped like Lots 101, 102. I have only looked at the 1st page.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I think that book is Charles Santore&#039;s <i>Windsor Style in America. </i>There may be more than 1 volume.</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
