A bunch of John Henry Belter's simpler designs are coming up for auction from Flomaton and Thomaston. I've provided a quick pick list below. There are a few scroll pattern chairs and sofa, a pair of "Rosalie" chairs, and the chair on the top left I am not sure of the pattern. The keystone shape of the seat back is throwing me. It may be a variation on the "Henry Clay" pattern.
