Folding Chair

Another nice Hunzinger folding chair. Fabric looks bad enough that it could be original. This one got listed at $500. Not sure if it sold or not. Check out the locking mechanism in the arms - appears you can recline it to different angles. Never seen that before.

FYI ~ This chair was relisted on eBay and purchased for $199 just last week.

I have an upholstery shop where a gentleman brought this chair to me. It is in excellent condition except the fabric is rotten. Looks like it has been reupolstered over top of the old fabric. The fabric is sorta rust color with a floral design. Is this the original?

Hard to say... we got one and it had 3 different upholstery fabrics layered above the horse hair padding. I would guess that the bottom most one was original. It is possible that the rust color fabric is original...what type of padding is below the fabric? How often do chairs typically get recovered? Every 50 years? I wish I could help more. If you get a chance, could you send me a picture of the chair once you have restored it? Thanks!
