Because you rarely see this simple design in a corner chair !!  Looks almost like something that came out of a monastery !! But since it is numbered on the bottom,, likely not !!  Not sure how old though !! Would like to see the underside with number too !!

Yes. Almost Arts and Crafts like. You carve a mouse on that leg and it's worth £700  ;D

Seen similar, simple designs and just interested to see the numbers / underside

Yes. And DON'T carve a mouse on it and it's "interesting."

Looks more like someone's garage crafting project., numbers on the bottom notwithstanding.
