Antique Lion head dinning chairs

By francine, 21 September, 2011
Description

These chairs are beautiful, they are all  (4) hand carved dining chairs. the head rest has a lion's head, they also have barley twist on the side and legs, the 2 front legs have caster.

I would like to find the value, since they do need a bit (minor) repair.  The back of a couple of chairs is loose, needs readjusting. they were professionally reupholstered approx.5 years ago.

It's absolutely NOt Black Forest german style of carving. American carving and american wood. Late victorian period most likley, or later.
