Any idea on how old these chairs are? I don't know much about them, but they are in pristine condition?

Turn the chair over and look for markings. Without a marking it will be hard to identify and assess value.
Do your rungs match this one:

If so, it MAY be an Eastlake chair. I don't think there are knockoffs of this brand, but in the furniture world it is hard to always say that with all positivity!
If so, you can watch this auction and if it sells it will give you a general value for yours!
It is quite lovely!!
You many never find an exact fabric match, as people loved (and still love) to change out fabrics as trends change, but the lovely lines of the chair usually (although not always) remain the same.
Please remember, asking price is NOT value, it is what the seller wants to get. Value is what someone pays for it today. This changes daily too....although usually not a lot!
Happy selling if that is what your aim is. If so, post back and I can give you some easy, peasy selling pointers!
The Eastlake name is used a lot but it is not a "brand name" it is what is called a Victorian "movement" and anyone can claim to have an "Eastlake" piece of furniture.
Cool info, cybergrannie! I had a brief go round love affair with Victorian furnishings back in the late 1980s and clearly my memory from this time is hazy and wrong! I used to covet those chairs and even started a cross stitch sampler with pink and roses on a blue background for if I ever could afford one.
We often "sacrifice" for our pets!
I like some of this style furniture but I still have my "nice" furniture mostly from early 1960's and I and my pets are very happy with these friendly old pieces; no matter their value.
this chair looks to be from the 60's, and it looks to be fabricated after an older Victorian style
without markings or documents it is hard to tell from a small image
