"Child's Rocking / HighChair"

By Sonarcop, 18 September, 2014
Description

I just inherited this beautiful children's rocking/highchair. There appears to be zero defects and almost looks brand-new, but I know that it is been in the family for a few generations. I cannot find a scratch or any type of tarnished wood areas. I think that my great grandmother had it in her sitting room for sometime & I just inherited it from from my grandmother.  

I do not have children or I would never consider parting with the chair. I find it to be very unique and interesting. I located a couple like this chair online, but none of them came close to the condition that this one is in; this chair is in mint condition & almost brand-new looking. I guess it did not get very much use at all, if any.

 

Please  contact me if you're interested in more detailed photographs; I'll be more than happy to send you additional photos of whatever you would like to see in close-up detail.
