Victorian wingback chair

Category
Furniture
Condition
Excellent
Description

 I know a bit about upholsering and can tell you that the pillow is full of feathers, not foam.  Also, the stuffing is old, possibly horse hair.  If it has been reupholstered they did an excellent job but it may very well be the original fabrics.  Even the dust cover underneath appears original.  My guess is that this was sitting somewhere like a parlor where it was rarely if ever used. 

Note:  Even if it's not what we think, that's okay.  We like it for its look.  However, I saw one in an antique book very much like it that was appraised at $3,000.  Your comments will be greatly appreciated!

Hand Carved Wood African? Persian? Arabian?

Category
General Antiques and Collectibles
Condition
Excellent
Description

These are two large hand-carved pieces, both on oak.  I am unsure which ethnicity this might reflect?  And what the value might be?  I was thinking Persian or Arabic?  But then again could be African?  These are large and heavy, about 33" tall.  The craftsmanship is awesome, whether it's valuable for that or not, someone spent a lot of time and care making these.
