Q: A friend has decided to sell this high-backed chair. Where should she sell it?

 

A: This chair with a tall and narrow back may have been inspired by the high-backed chairs made by Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868-1928), a Scottish architect, artist and designer. His Art Nouveau chairs had straight legs and the tall backs often had vertical or horizontal slats. Some sell for several hundred dollars. However, they are not currently a popular style.  To sell it try a local auction house or antique store.
