    Ok I don’t think this is a regular chair it is all handcrafted and chiseled in the pictures you’ll see the top of the seat that has some kind of plastic fabric with big headed tax but under that it’s a piece of metal but when the seat was built it was built with a square hole in it the picture of our hand carved claw feet and one of the pictures will show the back of this chair thing and if you look at the underside of the sea in the picture you’ll see a steel plate and you can tell it’s handcrafted if you look at the joints on it and I have everything nothing is broken I have the dowels to put it all back together but I want to know the age with the college and if I should turn it into somebody professional to rebuild I think it was used long ago for the richer folk with a bucket under it to go to the restroom Even if it is not can someone tell the name of those potty chairs

      Ok I have this cheer thing because I think it is actually one of the all-time chairs for rich folk to go to party and it was a bucket under it because it has a square hole purposely built in the seat then it looks like somebody at a later date as putting some kind of old fabric plastic vinyl whatever you want probably over a steel plate sitting over the whole and then they put like a bunch of big headed tax in it all handcarved all the joints were made with chills her and knives you can tell it was handbuilt not machine built because both sides are not identical in the joints I can’t remember what you doing to called but it was put the gather mostly wood dowels in like mortar joints I think the whole chair has two screws in it so somebody can help me figure out what to call it And how old it is and it is from America or somewhere else if you think do you know what it is I will send you more pictures I can put it all back together somebody had taken it apart my dick this is wha and how old it is and it is from America or somewhere else if you think do you know what it is I will send you more pictures I can put it all back together somebody had taken it apart Without hurting a single thing bundled it altogether was some serious old twine so if somebody could tell me what the old rich folk used to call these chairs where they went potty with a bucket under it then maybe I can find further research on it

      I would re-assemble it since you have all the parts. Then it will be easier to assess. It is possible the seat part with the opening is not a "hole" at all but is simply the framework of the chair. A woven seat of caning may have covered that opening before someone took the caning off (there appear to be reminents of something around that seat opening which may be remains of caning. A "potty chair" for an invalid probably would have had a round hole and had some kind of rim on the bottom side to accommodate a "slop jar", as a potty was called by some. The square opening leads me to believe it is simply the framework of a regular chair.

      Az általam ismert szoba wc-k zártak oldalról is . Szerintem is ez egy szép formájú szék .https://www.google.hu/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fimg.jofogas.hu%2Fimages%2FAntik_karosszek_szobawc_szek_wc_584401058870557.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fapro.tk%2F%3Fq%3Dr%25C3%25A9gi%2Bb%25C3%25BAtorok%26orderby%3Ddate-DESC%26page%3D25&docid=GHLVHBcBHQLGbM&tbnid=pYe3mq6x0DdtmM%3A&vet=10ahUKEwiGgO7KteTcAhVE2qQKHaf-BHwQMwh0KC8wLw..i&w=303&h=405&itg=1&bih=918&biw=1280&q=antik%20szobawc&ved=0ahUKEwiGgO7KteTcAhVE2qQKHaf-BHwQMwh0KC8wLw&iact=mrc&uact=8
