1826 PAINTED AND STENCILED FOLK ART ROCKER
UP FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IS THIS OUTSTANDING HAND STENCILED ROCKER THAT HAS BEEN IN A PRIVATE FAMILY COLLECTION FOR THE PAST 100 YEARS.
THERE ARE TWO DATES ON THIS FABULOUS PIECE.I WOULD GUESS THAT IT IS DATED TWICE BECAUSE OF MAYBE THE ROCKERS WERE ADDED AT THAT PERIOD OR MAYBE CHANGED FAMILYS AT THAT PERIOD.
THE DATES ARE 1826 & 1886.THE 1826 DATE IS ON THE HIGHEST SLAT IN A FADED GREEN DATE AND THE 1886 IS ON THE LOWEST SLAT THAT ARE ALSO STENCILED UNDER THE PAINT.
THIS PIECE OF AMERICAN FOLK ART HAS THE ORIGINAL FINISH ON ALMOST THE ENTIRE CHAIR WITH THE ORIGINAL PAINT, I THINK,IS A RED WASH COVERED IN A FLAT BLACK.IT ALSO HAS THE ORIGINAL OAK SPLINT BASKET WEAVE SEAT WHICH HAS SOME SLIGHT DAMAGE.
THIS GREAT PIECE OF AMERICANA FURNITURE HAS HER COMPLETELY ORIGINAL ALLIGATORED FINISH.THE ONLY PIECES THAT ARE NOT COMPLETELY ALLIGATORED ARE THE STENCILED RUNNERS ( AT LEAST 100 YEARS OLD).EVEN THE BACK SLATS ARE STENCILED UNDER THE ORIGINAL FINISH.
THE PIECE MEASURES 42 ½ INCHES TALL-22 INCHES WIDE.THE SEAT SIZE IS 19 ½ INCHES WIDE-15 INCHES DEEP.
THERE ARE NO BREAKS/REPAIRS ….JUST AS YOU SEE THE PIECE
IF YOU NEED ANY INFORMATION PLEASE ASK.THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE IN REGARDS TO THIS PIECE.THESE PIECES ONLY COME UPFOR SALE ONCE IN A LIFETIME.
JUST AN OUTSTANDING PIECE OF AMERICANA
