Charming antique rocker, probably made for a child. Rocker is 36" tall x 20" wide at the front x 30.5" long from front to back. This rocker is quite old and shows marks from normal usage on the wooden rockers. There is a small dent in the wood on the right side (facing) of the chair frame. Upholstery stuffing and cotton fabric is new. The front is slightly faded from the sun compared to the back. There are no identification marks anywhere on the rocker.
I bought it at a flea market years ago.
Hi Wendi,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The condition is quite good - the scuffs and scratches are evidence of genuine wear and something one would expect - and hope - to see for something of this age and use.
