identify this chair

We bought two of these about 15 years ago and are tying to get an estimate on their value. We bought them fro Maurice Villency - out of business chain in NY area. No info on the brand. We vaguely recall they were made in Italy. Does anyone recognize them?

Maurice Villency was the designer who owned the stores. He passed sometime in the 80's. Google says: the family-owned company still operates three stores under the name of Preferred Seating. Maybe you could find out more info from them.

Thanks so much for the suggestion. No luck even searching Preferred Seating. Frustrating.
