Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The embroidery was done by Viola Grae, an artist who did business with Rex Bell, and according to one source, was responsible for all of the embroidered Western-Wear in his shop. She was well-known in Rodeo and Western-Wear circles for her elaborate work. Known for its elaborate and eclectic style, she and Rex Bell were part of a vernacular style of Western Wear that reached its height from the 1930s to the 1970s among rodeo circles and Western Film stars that grew into a larger market of interest in the mythic West.

This chair appears to be in the Windsor style but has no manufacture marks, so it may be a custom piece. The inlay is an interesting intersection of Art Deco and Art Nouveau design.
