Re: Antique rocking chair
i am not really good on furniture. but it seem like the curved out seat make it a little older. to make it easier for hoop skirts and the lower ones are older also . 1890s. you can see on the bottom where the posts have been cut off. this may have been a valuable one at sometime because of the age and because they repaired it. but the housing crash killed the value of a lot of the furnituere. it may have been a family one with memories that is why people try to resucue these also ask family if they have memories of this chair it might be valuable to the family.
