    These chairs came from my great-grandmother's house in Allentown, Penna. I believe they are victorian.

      Would love to hear any opinions. These just fell into my hands and I am not sure what I have.

      I have a gentleman's chair nearly identical to the one in the middle, I am working on finding out more about it. So far I know that it's a medallion-back, spring seat gentleman's chair (ones without arms are ladies'). They ARE Victorian, probably walnut. Not sure whether that style of carving is "finger carving" or Rococo revival (1840-1865). They seem pretty common on the market and are going for around $100-$300.
