Antique Maple Lincoln Style Rocking Chair
Item Details
An antique maple Lincoln style rocking chair. This rocking chair is what is known commonly as a Lincoln style, because President Lincoln was photographed several times in a similar one. The chair features turned front legs with a turned front stretcher, square rear legs, two round stretchers on each side, scroll arms, and caned seat and back. The crest rail has a square sawtooth design on the top, and six short turned spreaders underneath. The arms are attached to the stiles with iron bolts, and the bottom of the arm rails are secured with a long iron bolt through the bottom of the rockers.
Condition
The finish is quite faded, and the chair has a few nicks and scratches.
