Title: Wooden folding chairs
Post by: Skinny on May 10, 2018, 05:29:39 PM

I have four wooden folding chairs. They have some metal hardware with flathead screws. The backs and seats are plywood. Does anyone know how old they might be or recognise who might have made them?  Thanks!

It may be an antique Norcor military folding chair.  Your picture is rather dark so you'll have to tell me if the chairs are the same:

Wow, yeah thats exactly what they look like. The hardware also appears to be just the same. My pictures do make the chairs appear darker than they are. Mine don't have the same fresh looking varnished finish as that one
