Description

I have 3 balloon-back parlor chairs that have been in my family. They are likely from the late 1880's to early 1900's. The wood on all chairs is in very good condition. They are beautifully shaped and would be great for a collector or to complete a set. One has a seat in excellent condition. The other two chairs need to be reapholstered. I would like to know what the approximate value of the chairs is in their present condition. I am interested in selling them, preferably to a buyer in the NJ or New England area.
