Jeff,
After I posted this I spent another 2 hours looking at hundreds of corner chairs. Nothing resembles this. The date you suggest might work, but I think it's older, 1850-70s; dunno why, just a gut feeling. Might be the casters. Casters were put on furniture so the furniture could be rolled off the carpet which was then taken outside and beaten (cleaned). This was before vacuum cleaners (& electricity) was invented. And telephones, I might add.
Thanks for your input.
Tom

Only that I don't think I had much to add to the analysis of Tom's chair-wood types, age etc.I guess there are no stupid questions especially with antiques where so much is a mystery/debatable. It really is a treasure hunt.

Hello, House of Charm, I'm sorry to ask this but what exactly do you mean by "from the school of the obvious"? I'm trying to learn here and nothing seems obvious? Sorry. Eric
