Own a rare piece of American history! Carlton McLendon created the first reproduction based on the original rocking chair still housed in a museum. The Lincoln rocker was sold for years by Magnolia Hall, a Georgia based Victorian & French furniture reproduction company, but is no longer offered. (I purchased this chair in 2002.) As Lincoln was tall and slim, the chair is also a bit narrow by today's standards. See dimensions below. The overall chair width is from end to end of rocking feet. Unique, beautiful piece in very good condition. Rose-pink velvet upholstery is in fine/excellent condition. less
