Question
I have what looks like a desk chair but iam confused because only the front legs have rollers the back legs do not what type of chair is this

Answer
Hi Harold
Nice to hear from you.
Well I guess you have a two roller chair LOL
Sorry Harold but I could not help myself.
And seriously I have never seen a desk chair with only 2 rollers.
I can't for the life of me imagine why they would do this.
If I can find any more info I'll pass it along but I'm stumped as you are.
Regards
Eileen

Expertise

I can answer most questions about the repairing and refinishing of all your old furniture items (the things we call antiques). I can also give you advice on what wood items to choose and what wood items to avoid at auctions, flea markets etc. I DO NOT give appraisals on antiques as this is not my field of expertise.

Experience

I have been repairing, refinishing and of course buying old furniture for the past 30 years. On any given weekend I can be found at auction sales or flea markets searching out a good buy. I have taken several courses in this area over the years, but I find "Hands On" learning to be the best teacher. I can help you avoid the pitfalls and problems of this wonderful rewarding craft.
