Anybody know what this chair might fetch?

It is very well built and sturdy. The only identifying mark we can find says "Made in Spain".

I have no knowledge about this sort of thing, so I'm trying to figure out what it may be worth.

All I know is it's a really cool chair, made in Spain.

Thanks!

2. Looks like it's in the style of a Mackintosh

But if it's made in Spain, that's not where he's from. He's from Glasgow, Scotland, so maybe it's an homage to his work?

5. You're quick!

I don't know chairs but I was trying to hunt it down myself, found the Mackintosh link but was trying to see if I could hunt down the manufacturer.

Ya badass!

6. Well, I'm a Glaswegian, so it was EASY!

He's a darling of the architecture world and since he's from my home town, I recognised the style right away. He's famous for these long flowing lines - he did the same kind of work on buildings and fences and other architectural fixtures.

3. Euro Deco wannabe Modernist Mission?

Indescribable. Take it to Antiques Roadshow if old enough, otherwise, enjoy, enjoy.

4. I don't know but since it's sort of an art piece you might try asking at a shop...

or web site that deals directly with interior decorators. They might even like to have it in their stock.

7. Perhaps a Frank Lloyd Wright design?

Looks similar to a beautiful dining room set the ex inlaws had... its been years, but I remember that futuristic design very well.
