The Before would fit in with my style much better, even without touching up the paint (though I probably would recover the cushion if only to remove the fraying edge hanging down).

The fabric choice is perfect, and the monochromatic color scheme really highlights the carving and those awesome curved back legs. I totally *would* buy a chair like this, so I'm really jealous you already claimed it!!

But I'm starting to find going the other way, and re-staining as you've done to be such a great look! Love the new chair.
