1880s Antique Platform Rocking Chair This Victorian style item is circa 1880 and is sometimes referred to as a "Charleston" style rocker. Exceptional working condition. What a lovely accent piece to any elegant room! Excellent medium-sized rocker. I have been told by a dealer that he believes this to be a "Hunzinger" brand chair, but I can find no mark to indicate such. If not, it is identical in age and style. Amazingly, included are the original double-springs and front metal wheels. All original wood - although unsure of type, it is a lighter wood stained dark. In the well used areas, the stain has worn through to expose a lovely light patina. Upholstery may have been replaced many years ago, and shows signs of wear of a well-loved chair. Fabric is a light blue heavy durable upholstery with pink and gold brocade trim. Measurements: Platform lengths - 23" Height - 42" Width at Arm Rests - 22" Fabric Seat Width - 16" Chair is available for pick up in Shallotte, NC. Comes from a smoke-free home. Please note: I sell for others on ebay. Items are sold as-is and represented to the best of my knowledge with information provided by the original owner.
