Rocking Chair with swan arms
Not sure of anything (type of wood etc.) Except it's supposedly been in my family for a few hundred years and it has green velvet upholstery. It belonged to my great grandmother who was born in 1901 and lived in Long Island, New York for most of her life.
Belonged to my great grandmother, Alice Brown. She was born in 1901 in Richmond Hill, Long Island, NY. Supposedly this chair has been in our family for a few hundred years.
