Set includes 1 armchair and 5 side chairs. Ornately carved details on the upholstered back. The claw feet are particularly well done.

Wood is the original finish. The set has an old world feel and could be used without changes. However, there are some variations and loss in the wood finish and the upholstery has been on in for many decades and does show wear. Fabric looks like red leather. Would rebuild the original springs if reupholstered. Chairs seem surprisingly solid for the age.

This is an original set and not a later reproduction. They date from about the 1890's. Hard to find the amount of ornateness that are on these American claw foot chairs. Must have been extremely expensive when new.
