    Trying to figure out what this set of 4 chairs is, from the estate of a woman who lived in France most of her life, the chairs appear to have fairly new upholstery, they measure, 34.5" high at the back, approx16" wide at the widest, 15" deep and 18" high at the seat...Any ideas of what style they are? She had a lot of Louis XIIII style furniture, these seem ornate to me but less than the other furnishings...thanks

      Thank you Kyratango, these seem like the same chairs, I found some on pinterest from Kings Lane described as French Bobbin Chairs, c 1860, they differ from the second ones which only have a single pole at the side...So are they inexpensive rental chairs or the real deal from 1860? The big mystery?https://www.pinterest.com/pin/537054324284122716/
