About the Item

An American rustic pine child's high chair from the early 20th century with rush seat. Experience the warmth and nostalgia of early American craftsmanship with this rustic pine child's high chair from the early 20th century, complete with a traditional rush seat. This quaint piece, originating from the early 1900s, captures the essence of simpler times with its ladder back design, crowned with two round finials for a touch of elegance. The chair's structure is enhanced by two open arms, providing a secure embrace around the woven rush seat, a testament to the artisanal skills of the era. The chair's legs are thoughtfully designed, with the front pair turned for a subtle decorative touch, and all four splayed slightly to ensure stability. Connected by thin cross stretchers, the chair's framework offers both durability and support, making it not just a piece of furniture, but a piece of history to be treasured. With its clean lines and the natural beauty of pine and rush, this child's high chair, circa 1900, becomes a charming addition to any home. Ideal for a child's room or as a unique accent piece in a living area or kitchen, it serves as a delightful reminder of childhood innocence and the enduring appeal of handcrafted furniture. This high chair not only offers a glimpse into the past but also provides a functional, character-filled piece for the contemporary home.
