Title: Anyone have any idea what these chairs would be worth?
Post by: paulemi on August 23, 2009, 11:36:52 AM: Inherited from my Grandparents but not much use for them now.

I believe they're Victorian Walnut, but would like to know for sure and what they might be worth.

Thanks,
Paul

Would lean more towards the higher end if they are in very good shape.

Post by: paulemi on August 24, 2009, 12:18:45 PM: Thanks! They are beautiful. I wish I had a place for them.

They're just not that comfortable and don't fit in anywhere in our house.
