Not sure if this is an original Pearsall chair or not. I couldn't find any marks on it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I don't think so but you can look for it in the extensive Pearsall trade catalogs here:

The way the upholstery was done on the arms looks like better technique than on Pearsall furniture, plus the proportions look more balanced. I've reupholstered quite a few Pearsall chairs and the frames are not well made at all, but people are drawn to that very obvious mid-century look and demand for them has shot up in recent years. Chances are pretty good that whatever you have there is much better than a Pearsall. (And "original Pearsall" is a bit of a contradiction. It's true that Pearsall produced a lot of furniture with the company name on it but an awful lot of the pieces are very close copies of American and Scandinavian designers' work.)
