Hello BBBB,
Cool finds. They look like the real deal. What area did this come from if I may ask? (and how much $$?) My wife and I used to have a house full of this kind of stuff. The true antique chests and other furniture are very heavy, After we had to relocate twice and saw how the professional movers were tearing our stuff up, the last time we moved we sold everything so we didn't have to see how bad the damage was again. As you know, Shaker chairs weren't made to be comfortable.
