Description I wanted an antique sitting chair for my spare bedroom so i decided to go to estate sales and garage sales. Well i found this at an estate sale and the lady said that they use to have tons of antiques for their previous home but since moving into their new home (beautiful) they wanted newer items. She told me this was an antique and after i noticed how beat up it is, i took her word for it because i plan on getting it restored. My questions are: 1. Really an antique? 2. Original or Reproduction? 3. Worth time and money to fix it? 4. Type of wood & style of chair? 5. What's it worth? Thanks in advance for any information you provide.
