In need of new upholstery, it retains its original finish. Splayed back legs, turned front legs. Attributed to acclaimed furniture maker John Henry Belter who was a German- American cabinetmaker active in New York City. His shop "J.H. Belter and Co." was located during the years 1846-1852 at 372 Broadway.
