I just finished restoring this rocking chair found in very bad condition in an my daughter's attic in a little village in the Czech Republic. The 2nd image shows carved detail at the top of the back posts but end abruptly in a crude flush cut. A very similar Fischel rocker I saw on the internet had the posts ending in finials. I'm wondering if mine originally were topped with finials since removed due to damage. I see also from internet postings that Fischel made a huge number of design variants. I'm also curious about the approximate year of manufacture.
I intend to give this chair back to my daughter so that it can return to it's home north of Prague.
The manufacturers marks are either side of the seat on the underside.
