Social Question
Will you guys help me track down some info on these antique chairs?
I’ve looked and looked and looked over the years, but have never found anything quite like these. Without cushions My mom bought them 30 years ago. She made cushions for them, and upholstered the sides (nothing that can’t be undone if necessary.) However, looking at the chair from underneath, it looks like it has had some carved designs on the sides which are covered by the fabric my mom put on.
The backs fold down. Here are the “hinges

Here is a shot of one of the front feet. The back feet are just a plain line, no carving.
Another shot of the side rail from underneath. I thought it was interesting that it’s slotted like that, but serves no purpose that I can see.
Anyway, I hope you can puzzle the pictures out, and help me get an idea of what kind of chairs these are.
TREASURE HUNT!!
