    It's four chairs & a huge two leaf table. They are all mahogany. The chairs all have tags that say Tell City & from what I've gathered they are roseback. I've also been told that reproductions are common but these are so well built and all four chairs have a Tell City sticker that's been brushed over with the stain used & a stapled tag with serial numbers. Only thing throwing me off is the chairs all have two roses. I've searched & searched but only find Duncan Phyfe chairs with the one top rose. Could I have a rare set of two rose Phyfe roseback or a set of well made reproductions??

      Why would anyone even think these are rare when so many companies made good quality pieces. Also to note is that this company took many design elements and reworked them to be their own designs. Not even English !~
