You did quite well, what you
You did quite well, what you paid was about low wholesale. These are not the greatest chairs as far as reproduction go, but they often sell for twice what you paid for them.

when you say they often sell
when you say they often sell for twice what I paid, do you mean each or all 6 together? Also do u know much about antique dining tables? I am having a hard time getting the name off of the table. It was stamped in ink & the wood absorbed it really well so it looks like it bled. I can make out most of it, but am lacking the first name of the company. What I have is  _______ & Carlton out of Keene, New Hampshire. If you could fill in the blank for me, that would be excellent.   Thank you for all your info & help.

Twice what you paid for the
Twice what you paid for the set. As for the name I would suggest doing a google on "Furniture Keene, New Hampshire". Also most places have a chamber of commerce or historical association that would be happy to help you out with the company's name & history.

Re: S Bent & Bros. set of 6 Dining Chairs Antique 30
This came from my parent's house and we believe it was a gift from an aunt oca exam and uncle. My folks had this as long as I can remember and I'm 51.This appears to have microsoft exam 70-536 been made to be a lamp. The inside is hollow as is the hat on top. At the bottom on the rear, there is a small "cut out" allowing a cord to come out. Is in excellent shape although the paint has dulled and cracked some. No chips!mcts exams
