Wing-Back Chair (Reupholstery!) (Near Schaumburg Village hall)
This is a stunning, authentic wing-back chair from the James River Plantations Collection by Hickory Chair, originally purchased at Marshall Field’s. This is a high-end, solid frame with beautiful historical lines—perfect for a professional reupholstery project. Condition Note: While the "bones" are incredible, our cats were unfortunately very inspired by the fabric. The chair shows general usage and signs of aging consistent with a vintage piece. See claw damage in photos. Integrity: The chair is structurally sound and sturdy, no urine or odors, though it will have some lingering cat hair. It is a premium candidate for a total fabric restoration to return it to its original glory. Located on the 1st floor. This is a solid, high-quality piece of furniture, so please bring a vehicle with enough space. Important Pickup Info: First Come, First Served: I cannot "hold" this piece without a confirmed pickup time. Logistics: This is a high-quality, heavy Marshall Field’s frame. You must bring a van, pickup, or truck with a second person to help you lift/load. I am unable to assist with moving or loading. Serious Inquiries Only: Please message me with a specific day/time you can pick up.
