Mid-Century Modern High Back Rocker Rocking Chair

About the Item

Lovely Mid-Century Modern high back rocker comprised of an oak frame and the original nubby rust and gold chenille fabric. This rocking chair is in beautiful condition, keeping in mind that it is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear. The original fabric on the rocker has wear on the ends of the arms and some of the loops are clipped. Will need reupholstered eventually and is priced accordingly. Oak frame has been newly refinished, and we re-glued the seat joints & reinforced for longevity. Please see photos and zoom in for details. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 1940-1950’s. They say, “worry is like a rocking chair: it gives you something to do but never gets you anywhere!” -Erma Bombeck…. Well, no need to worry!!
