What does this mean?

Dear Jenn,

Thank you for your request. The presented object is a set of four chairs in the so-called Chippendale style. These chairs were made as period furniture as we can see at the shape itself and the little details of the craftsmanship. For example, the decor is milled and not carved by hand. This dates these chairs into the late 19th or highly probably in the early 20th century in the US. Sadly all the chairs are damaged which lowers the estimation noticeable.
An estimation would be between 100 to 200 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.

With best regards,
Georg
