Description

Oak rocker with brown velvet, spring-cushioned seat. The uprights on the back rise above the top rail to form bulbous knobs. There are 19 spindles on the back and 19 beads on underside of bottom rail. The 20th spindle is broken in half, but has been saved in a box of parts from other pieces of furniture that need to be repaired. Stretchers connect each leg of the chair. The right rocker has been replaced at some time with the current one made of a lighter wood.
