Hey everyone, I'm new, and was wondering about this chair I've got. My mom gave it to me saying that it was at least my great grandparents (early 1900's), and could possibly be my great great (late 1800's). My great great grandparents lived in Virginia and might have picked it up there, after that they moved to North Carolina, so we're pretty sure it came from one of the 2 states. I know absolutely nothing about antiques and wood types or stains. I looked all over the chair and couldn't find any names or dates. May be under the netting on the bottom??? It has springs underneath it, so I don't know if that automatically means it's to new to be an antique. I've tried googling types of furniture during certain time periods, and honestly, it all looks the same lol. The chairs upholstery is pretty rough in spots, so it'd have to be redone, the wood looks worn in places, I don't know if thats bad to collectors? Can it be fixed? I know you all are busy, but if anyone could either help me out or lead me in a good direction it'd be much appreciated. If its worth a lot I may sell it, if not I'll probably hang on to it.
Thanks
Pictures below, hopefully they can help. From looking around at pictures, possibly victorian???
