Featured Need help identifying the era of this heirloom rocking chair.

    This rocking chair has been in my family forever and was "old" when I was a child in the mid 1960s. I have always been curious as to the era of the style of the chair. There are no markings on it anywhere. It was refinished about 30 years ago, and I have replaced the cushion a few times. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

    I’d say that it’s oak, ca 1900-1910.
