    There is no stamp or information on the bottom of this rocker, any knowledge on this would be great!

      You are making an assumption when you call this a child's rocking chair and I believe you are wrong from what I see in the pictures. Could you provide a measurement from the floor to the top of the seat and also the width of the seat please? I believe I know what you have but in an effort to not put my foot in my mouth I ask for more information to work with.

      Thank you for your response,
      From floor to seat 13"
      Width of seat 15" and tapers to 12" in the back
      Arm measures 11 1/4"
      Back measures 19 1/4 " from seat to top

      It could look odd because of the angle in which I took the picture, probably should have taken the picture at eye level?

      Based on the dimensions I will say you have a nursing rocker/mother's chair/sewing chair they are known by each of the names and not at all a child's rocker. The chair dimensions are for an adult. A child's chair would be scaled down to accommodate the smaller body. If you research you will learn why they were built this way and how they were used.

      Thank you for taking the time to input your opinion, much appreciated, I'll have to look into this further.
