Someone had a puppy, and one of the arms has chew marks. On the

they are deeper, up to quarter inch. I don't want to restore this to as

shape, just fill in the holes, shape, sand, and put some matching
stain/varnish over it. I know there are common wood fillers. Is that
what
I would use, or is there something stronger, maybe epoxy based, or some
other type that has a little more holding power in an area where this
might
flex?

Anyone know what a chair like that might be worth? I got it free at a
yard
sale with some other "stuff".

I really like the chair.

How much did you pay for it?

Nothing. The openings to the two C sides are facing rearward, so there is a
hand rest. The wood is about 3/4" thick, and 2.5" wide, looks like layered.
Nice springy seat, and soft cushion. Might be Bruno Mathsson, not labeled,
but that style.
