Re: Unique Rocking chair
Can anyone give me a little information about this rocker?
Re: Unique Rocking chair
It dates from the turn of the 19th Century, without a label or tag though it's impossible to determine a maker. many manufacturers produced similar chairs during this period. They were a hot item during the 1980's, values for them in recent years have taken a bit of a plunge. We'd retail one like this in the $275.00- $300.00 range.
