Description

This rocker was origianally acquired by my Great Great Grandmother and handed down to my maternal grandfather in 1911, one year before my mother was born. It has been used through 2 generations since then. We still sit in it occasionally.

We are interested in selling this chair and need an appraisal for that purpose. As seen in the photos, there is considerable wear and several repairs have been done. The chair is functional yet fragile.
