Description

Selling a beautiful, authentic late 19th-century (circa 1880–1900) American high-back spindle rocking chair. This is a classic "Boston Rocker" style variant featuring gorgeous turned spindle details, a shaped crest rail, and an original bobbin/spool-turned front stretcher bar. Perfect project piece for a furniture flipper, antique collector, or folk art enthusiast! • Structurally Solid: Every single spindle is completely intact and tight. The arms and rocker rails are in great shape with no cracks, splits, or structural wood rot. It rocks smoothly. • Historical Provenance: Features the rare remnant of its original, 19th-century scalloped paper manufacturer/shipping label intact on the raw wood underside (reads "N. A. S..."). • Incredible Patina: Glimpses of original bright apple green and aqua blue paint peek through the weathered top coat, offering an amazing authentic "chippy" look if you choose to seal it as-is. • The paint is heavily flaked and alligatored (buyer should assume it contains lead paint due to age; needs to be sealed or safely stripped).The original inset leather/oilcloth seat pad is split down the center and will need to be reupholstered or replaced.Found in barn storage, so it needs a thorough surface cleaning
