Dining chairs with carved top

By shop247, 20 August, 2008
Description

Bought these chairs at thrift store in San Diego, CA.  The store owner stated they may have been made in the 1940-1950's.  They have a nice carved flower on the top of the chair.  They are in good condition.  Seats need to be reupholstered and a new finish to remove the cosmetic scuffs.  Any information on the type of wood, style of chairs, and how old they might be will be greatly appreciated!
