- Literature: Reference: Israel. Antique Garden Ornaments, Two Centuries of American Taste, p. 221 and p. 179, pl. 4.35.
- Notes: Note: Established by Frederick C.A. Hinderer in 1886, Hinderer's Iron Works operated at 302-304 Camp Street until 1894 and at 1112-1118 Camp Street from 1894-1920. Examples of the foundry's ornamental ironwork are seen throughout New Orleans. The design of these throne-like seats is heavily influenced by Renaissance Revival design, and was produced not only by Hinderer, but also by North American Ironwork/J.L. Mott of New York c. 1895. Interestingly, the patent stamp on the Hinderer chairs seen here predates the Mott production by more than a decade.
