    I assume this is a Victorian piece. It's been in my family for multiple generations. Any clues what this style is or how old it might be? I am guessing late 1800s.

      It kind of looks partially eastlake style but the maker put his own spin on the style since there are other styles involved. This chair was likely made around 1950-1960's when they were still making these at the many furniture makers who made this kind of furniture.

      That could be. I assumed it was passed to my grandparents from their parents (etc.), but maybe they bought it. Odd choice if they did. It's so petite only a small woman can use it. It has no manufacture's info on the seat bottom.

      Agree re: Eastlake.
