Bought these chairs as 16th century, I'm guessing they are not?
« on: September 21, 2013, 07:04:23 am »
Hi all, got a little carried away on ebay, saw these chairs, advertised as 16th century imports and bought from a dealer but too big for her new house,  my gut instinct tells me if this is true why did she advertise them on ebay for 99p start? Anyway they came to £130 which is ok if they are modern, but just wanted to check if anyone could give me some info on them? Many thanks for an help

Would need to see the bottom of them to know more.  The bottom of the seat construction tells a lot.  Some people on Ebay do start out around that price thinking they will be bid up which, doesn't always happen.
