My wife has a thing about occasional chairs. She bought a pair of 1980's Ercol chairs. One has some dreadful repairs. The owner refused to split the pair and it was a good price (according to the wife).
What can be done with this?
Spindle has split and got a bolt through it.
Another bolt holding the arm to the back.
