John Hutchinson of Rose Valley worked on this chair for a customer and wanted to see if anyone was able to attribute it to a particular maker.

I have nearing the same arm chair with it's matching  camel back settee and another chair.  My pieces have more carving  with alot more flowers.  I too would like to know more.
I would not rule out the shop of Alexander Roux.  But a word of caution that numerous NY and Phil. manufactures were making rococo rosewood chairs during the 1850s through the 1860s using nearly identical designs many of which were borrowed from French antecedents found in popular printed publications and/or exhibited at the various exhibitions in Europe.
