Description

This chair is a triple pressed back rocking chair, with a design of flowers and leaves with curvy detail. This detail was pressed, Not carved in the back of the chair. The chair was painted black when it was purchased and the cane seat was almost all worn out. The cane seat was completely replaced at the time of restoration and since it was restored it has not been used. It has been stored in a room with nobody allowed to touch it. This was restored in 1981 or 1982 (years not exact). My father thinks it is about 100 years old but cant be for sure.
