Antique Sewing Rocker

Description

I recently acquired this antique sewing rocker from an estate sale.  The woman said it was a Victorian era rocking chair and said she had received it from her grandmother.  There aren't any markings that I can see.   It's in very good condition if it really is that old!

The color of the fabric is more of a burgundy color.  The picture I uploaded of the back looks purple but the other pictures show the color more accurately.  There is a gorgeous hand-stiched embroidered flower on the seat back.  

I took a picture of the bottom as I have never seen anything with drilled holes like this. 

It's a rather small rocker, but it's very solid.  

As it sits, the size is 33.5" tall,

15.5" floor to seat,

seat width is 18.5",

rocker legs are 30"

 

I am curious to know if this indeed is a Victorian era rocker and the value of it. 

 

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
