I have five identical antique side chairs, originally part of a table and chairs set (but no longer have the table). I inherited them from a family member who I think bought them new as reproductions in the 1960's.
Purchased new (?) in 1960's (?) in either New York City or Long Island by a relative. Used in a home dining room for years, never exhibited.
