Baaa
I've inherited 6 of these chairs,



plus a carver, four my Grandfather. It's most likely that he made then some time in the 1930's or 40's.

The varnish finish isn't great, so I'm planning on stripping them and then restaining them or waxing them with a coloured wax.

I also need to replace the seat material and add some padding. I stripped off the seat material on a couple of the chairs & there's about 6 layers under there, not all of which could be identified by my Dad, i.e. they're over 60 yrs old!
