This is a beautiful old antique child’s bow back chair in what I would say is very good condition. I try to take very good pictures, so look at the pictures and decide for yourself. It’s over 100 years old, beyond that I can’t say for certain how old it is, but I would guess early 20th century. There is a stress crack that was repaired a long time ago, and there is another crack (both are pictured, and near the top of the chair) from when the wood was bent, and over time it start...ed to crack a little bit. It has long since been done doing its worst, so now it is just a nice little Country primitive chair. There is a fraction of a millimeter of play in one of the legs where it joins the seat, and it was glued some time ago, but it doesn’t seem like it is necessarily a defect, it’s just loose a tad. It doesn’t seem like it would ever actually come out, at least I highly doubt it, unless somebody tried to. Now that I’ve got the flaws out of the way... It really is a nice chair to look at, and my son, who is now six years old, has used it since he could sit upright. Never had a problem with it, and we always enjoyed it sitting with his little desk.Please message me if you have any questions. Sorry if the shipping is a little bit high, but it is a big box. I will ship USPS ground, in a well padded box.
