Ok. The other posts of yours are interesting. I think the blue "victorian" chair is a reproduction. The red chairs(although I can't tell if the upholstery is original) appear to be real and I'm guessing that they date pre-1900 and even pre-1850. I hate the swan neck chair because of the leopard upholstery, but the chair is interesting. My antique store partner was the furniture expert, I dislike furniture(heavy and takes up too much room) and I could be totally off base. There should be some experts here who can inform you and set me straight...
 

Thank you very much for your help! I love the Swan neck chair and would have loved to have seen what it looked like originally, the colours were probably fantastic judging from the paint flakes! I believe you are correct on the blue one. I would love to know more about the red ones!! Hopefully someone will help me out on those.
 

Silly question, I'm sure, but the blue chair... reproduction of what?? lol. I am green when it comes to furniture.
