Thanks Duane and puhmuckel!
Duane, you're a patient man. Thank you for your help. To both you and puhmuckel? I want to say that I'm not at all worried about the quality of the furniture I would get from you, and if they were to be more decorative than functional, I would have made a decision and ordered already. However, my husband an I are likely to end every long, hard day relaxing in these chairs and they must fit us. I have sat in many, and now know that everything from the height of the back, to the pitch of the back, to the depth of the seat, to the height of the seat, to the height of the arm relative to the seat contribute to the comfort of the chair. So, having said that, I think I'm going to go with the chairs that I sat in and felt comfortable in. I hope I don't regret it, I'll definitely follow up here!
Thank you puhmuckel for your kind offer! Only in Louisiana! I hope your pieces are even better than you expect, I'm sure you have a beautiful place. There's absolutely nothing like a courtyard in the French Quarter!!
