Welsh Boarded Childs chair
Charming Childs rocking chair in boarded elm. The coopered oak tray detaches by means of a hand carved latch. Heart shaped carry handle and shaped cresting and foot rail, wing sided, two small cutouts in the back to attach a ribbon to prevent the child from falling out. Superb graduated patina. The finest version of this model I have seen.
