Description

I would love to know the history of this piece. I have been lead to believe the single double wickered canopy/porters chairs are rare but have never seen another double porter's chair. Anyone have some information? I would love to know. Thanks!

History
This was a gift from a very good friend of mine they said it was very old and was purchased in Texas many years ago. I believe the piece was recovered sometime during the 80s due to the upholstery fabric. It is in remarkably good condition but I have never seen a double wide porters chair.
