Description
 
This unique piece features a mini replica of an old New York Stock Exchange Members Seat. The chair is remarkably accurate. It even has the seat number on the back (#119) which amazingly we know belonged to James Watson Cunningham from 1865 - 1871. The only inaccurate part of the chair we can find is the original had a leather seat pad.

Back in the late 1800s NYSE members actually owned a seat where they we able to submit their bids and offers. The term "Seat on the Exchange" is still used today to signify a broker/firm's membership to the New York Stock Exchange.

The base is metal, the chair is plastic and they are all covered with a glass dome.
