Title: Antique chair
Post by: barratj on August 11, 2008, 05:21:27 PM

I've had this antique chair in my basement for decades. Does anyone know what type of chair it is and what its value might be? Many thanks.

Dear D&B,

Thanks for the information. How old do you believe the chair is? And it is from England, right? Did the Adam brothers have any makers marks that they used on their chairs? Was it made by the Adam brothers or is it just an Adam Brothers design? A lot of questions.....

Thanks again.
