Hello Everbody,
Thanks for all the responses, way to make a guy feel welcome! I'll send some more close ups and check for springs.
I seem to remember a photo of my grandfather with these chairs, possibly as they were found in the basement. I think my memory is them being un-upholstered. The house in Jersey was close to the shore line. It was this beautiful old Victorian with amazing interior wood carvings. I have old photos of the area after a hurricane hit. The water had at least filled the basement of the home. So that may explain the condition you'll see in the photos.
I don't know exactly what you mean by recovered?
Thanks again for all this great information.

Hello everyone, I have a pair of chairs that I unfortunately know very little about. I am hoping to ask you all for some help figuring out what they are. They appear to be a his and hers set. They were found in a basement in New Jersey in the 1950's. They have been in my family since then. That's about all I know. Maybe after seeing some photos, somebody might recognize them. Thank you for any assistance and knowledge you can provide.
