"So when your collecting your chairs you might want to consider how you want to use these. These child's chairs. They're really popular. A child this small. Rockers. Anything that has to do with child's furniture. People really look to collect this and it's highly sought after. It brings a premium price. People who collect dolls or bears or any of those early toys like to display them by using early furniture like this in child's size. So this can be used in a number of way if you're a collector. It also is great to have around in your house just to use as a decoration in a corner or in your dining room. You can really use this if you have a toddler. People do come into my shop looking for a child's chair that can be used. Some are from better suited than others. This is a good example of a sturdy chair that could be used if you had the right table. So when you're buying these, a lot of them especially in the chairs are very functional and can be used at desk. Or, you can set a whole dining room table with these Sheraton Windsors. And the thumbbacks. I find the thumbbacks are really comfortable, very sturdy. It can hold a wide range of weight of which we have to consider today when your sitting in these chairs. Because back then in the 1800's people were a little bit smaller than what they are today. That's something to consider when you're buying these kinds of chairs, just the weight limit for them because you want them to stay in good condition. So I would consider how you're going to use these chairs when you're collecting them. And, if you have a very valuable, highly painted chair, whether or not your wanting to use it in a everyday use. So some things to consider when your thinking about buying these chairs. Whether your going to buy them to resell or buy them to just show in your house. Or, buy them to use. So those are things to consider when you start to go out and collect these chairs."
