Good evening, Kenneth,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
This style of furniture - French Louis XV style - has been imminently popular since the 18th century but it is a very formal style of furniture and not as sought after on the market as it once was.
The following comparable chairs were used as a basis for the value provided:

Based on the photographs and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
An over-upholstered French Louis XV style bergere (closed armchair)
Probably 20th century
reupholstered probably in the last quarter of the 20th century
$150-250 (fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking prices may vary)
Please let me know if you have additional items to appraise, and thank you for using Mearto.
