    The top slat has a carved flower with a leaf on each side. I also have 4 diningroom chairs that match. Who is manufacturer? Is rocking chair a salesman's sample or made for a child? Were the diningroom chairs also made with arms? where can you buy add'l ones?

      Too funny! I am one like it in storage. I was going to buy it at a yard sale but the lady just gave it to me. The cussion is the same. I have a rocking chair that is mahogany, round back, gargoyles at the end of the arms. I need a price range for insurance purposes. A pipe broke upstair last Jan while on vacation and it was placed in storage. The back has some splits in it. It has a cushion bottom. You can see it was recoved and was a tapestry before. Maybe we can help each other.

      OMG. Sorry that I can't help with the manufacturer but had to comment since I grew up with these chairs. Rocker is probably not a sample...people really were a lot smaller back then!

      the rocker is only 21 inches tall - the picture is deceiving - Robin

      LOL. You are right, that IS small! I'm going with a childs rocker...

      I just posted chairs that look like yours - trying to find out some information about them as well. Mine are dining room chairs though, I don't have a rocker.

      Those are called 'Rose back chairs" I used to have a set:)

      does anyone know the manufacturer of these chairs?
    8. Petria, 14 years ago
      Does anyone know how much this chair would sell for? Thanks!

      Just wondered because my sister liked it and took it while I was out of town!!!
