Description

Traced over 100 yrs old.... no stamps, brands, or signatures.... very good condition, solid, seasoned oak. The seat looks like a laminate mahogany over oak.  We inherited it from my husbands mother, she died at 87 yrs old who had this for  40 yrs plus prior and it had been given to them from a family friend who passed 90's. They were told at the time it had belonged to the womans grand parents.
