Long Description
I know very little about this chair except it belonged to my grandmother who at one time lived in Boston. The original fabric was a orangish brocade fabric. It had the round brass tacks all around the edge of the fabric. Â It was all eaten up by mice because of where it was stored and was reupholstered. Â The original wood color was also the dark stain used in that period furniture.

Re: Antique mahogany high back chair
It dates from the turn of the 19th century, 1890-1900 or so. Not much value currently, values peaked for furniture like this in the late 19780's to early 90's. It might get $75.00 at auction.
