I wonder where this rocker was made. My great grandfather had it in Florida and it is over 100 yr old. The shape of the left arm makes it a man's rocker because when rocking in the chair, a man can put his leg over the rocker's arm.

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

Are you looking for the original maker or the person who did the patch job and put the metal L iron under the right arm?

yeah, that 'repair' made it stronger, but actually probably ruined it value-wise. I just wondered where it was made.....no one I know has ever seen a rocker like this. it's a very nice rocker, especially for its age, and is well used.

It's another version of a Plantation chair. This one being Canadian.
