This set is solid, perhaps maple but don't really know anything about it. It has beautiful carved flowers, wrap around arms and curled pieces on each leg. The round seats make it so comfortable for large and small bottoms!
It is quite possibly one of a kind and not reproduced. We are inexperienced though.
Can anyone share any info on type of wood, era, style (English etc)
Any info would help to sell it.
I recently came across this exact same set, though not nearly as good of condition as yours. I too am looking for information on its history. I understand your post is 7 years old, but it is the only bit of information I have come across on the internet. Did you ever find any information as far as the origin of the set? What location are you in? I only ask because it would be wild this set is currently the one I have in my possession. Any information is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
This could be an Asian but probably Chinese armchair set with table from the 20th century

Hi, Bmerchant89. :-)
FWIW, Google Lens uncovered some twins or near twins for the chairs, however, I could only find the image in the Google Preview, so I'm using TinyUrl to shorten the craptastically long link (I'm afraid that the original link might make CW S&T S/W barf):

Here's this site that the Google Preview is supposed to be for. Dunno if the image is buried in there somewhere, or is long gone):

The table doesn't match the chairs, either in design or wood color, but the chairs look quite close to the ones in this post.
Puncak is in Indonesia.
Hi again, Bmerchant89. :-)
It's a bit exasperating, because Google Lens works differently on the different operating systems. On Microsoft Windows, it only gave me a truncated (height-wise) image, and I knew I'd seen a more complete albeit small image on my smart phone, so I went back to my phone to see if I could tease out a link for that better image again. Here we go:

I do think the chairs (but not the table) at that Expedia dot com listing are the same chairs in this post.
So, are these chairs Indonesian-made? Dunno, but at one time there was a listing with that picture at expedia dot com for accommodations in Puncak, Indonesia.
