Neo-classical chairs
Hi,
I bought these chairs at a yard sale. I have four of them and I'm curious if anyone knows anything about them. They are definitely not new reproductions. They have a nice patina in the right places. I recently had them reupholstered as they were covered in fabric from the 70s that wasn't original to the chairs. I have not touched the wood. As you can see in the photos they have a ram head on both sides of the top of the chair. The base of the arms have what looks like a hoof. They are a founded shape kind of like a gondola chair but not quite. The carving isn't super intricate but it isn't the opposite of that either. The casters aren't original but it looks like they may have always had casters. I am keeping them to use in my living room so your help is only informational for me. Thank you in advance.
