Your chair is loosely based on the Mission style which was popular from about 1900-1920, the style reaching it's peak of popularity about 1916.  Phoenix Chair Co. The Phoenix Chair Company was founded about 1875 almost immediately afterward by a group of businessmen, and for a time Watson Crocker served as the superintendent there. In 1880, however, the Crocker brothers formed the Crocker Chair Co.  The firm went out of business in the 1930's, a casualty of the Depression. Some catalogs are available to view online through the UW Digital Collections. At Auction about $150.00
