Old Spanish chair??

By Beachtar, 16 May, 2012
Description

I was told when I bought this on Craigslist that it was possibly old and Spanish or Italian... I reupholstered it as the original upholstery was falling apart.  Does anyone know the age, origin and/or value??  Any input is much appreciated!

Re: Old Spanish chair??

hello, I don't know much about furniture, but this looks like being inspired by a Neo-Renaissance scissors chair. See this link for a similar one:http://www.galerya.de/kunstwerke.php?katid=7&lang=en, or Google
"scissors chair" to see how a classical pure style scissors chair is looking like.
