    Just looking to get some more information on this rocker. I bought from an estate sale, a few years back as a college student, and now just trying to figure out of its an actual antique! Thanks!

      The underside will usually tell the story. I have flipped over what I thought was an antique piece of furniture to find a sticker revealing that it was made in a foreign country and made recently. They are pretty good at reproducing furniture to make it look older as you seem to already know. The way the wood is cut, the joints the screws and often labels often verify the age and can be seen on the bottom of the chair.

      Looked on the bottom and there is no information. Not sure if this is a good thing not a bad thing. Haha
