It looks like an early 20th century chair of no particular style. It is a nice decorative piece but it will cost a great deal to replace the caning. It appears to be one woven section comprising the back and sides. If it were a single press in sheet it might be 50 bucks or so. Recaning the entire chair, one strand at a time, could cost between 150.00 to 200.00 unless you can do i yourself. If it has no sentimental value it would not be worth it. You would never recoup the cost.
