Hi all, I apologize that my first post is a request for help, I've really enjoyed reading the forum and look forward to learning from you all in the future.
I have a chair that was passed down in my family. The chair was purchased in the late 40's or early 50's to the best of my knowledge (before my time). It was re-upholstered in the late 70's or early 80's. That's about all I know. Someone suggested the the inlay work on the crest may represent the goddess "Diana/Artemis the Archer", which seems likely. This is a family piece so I'm not really concerned with value, but would love to have an idea of origin/age if possible.
Photos here, and I can take more if needed:
