Can you help identify these chairs?

Hello all!  I hope your all staying cool.  It is unbelievable hot here this week.  Sunday I overdid it and suffered from heat exhaustion.  No fun!  I hope you all are smarter than me about staying hydrated and cool in this hot weather.  No more cutting down tree limbs etc until it cools down a bit. ;)

Now for my post title, "Can you help identify these chairs?"  My daughter bought a couple wicker chairs at a garage sale.  The lady had told her she believed them from around the 1920's.  My daughter had them stored in a friends building and was beginning to clean them up to give them a fresh coat of paint.  Unfortunately there was a fire there one night and burnt the place to the ground. Poof went her chairs.  :(  She is to put a price on the value of them for the insurance company.  I have looked all over for something similar to these and am coming up empty handed.  Soooooo I thought who better to ask than all of you!

These are the two chairs.  The white one is a rocker and the other a chair.  Do they ring a bell with any of you?  Thanks for looking.!!  :)

Then followed that beautiful season... Summer....
Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape
Lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.

  2. Thanks Niece. :) It was sad that they ended up in the fire. She was really excited about redoing these.

  3. That is too bad. I have no idea on the value, but I had similar ones a few years ago when I was very into wicker. Wish I could help! Hope all has been well with you.
