Furniture: Colonial-style chairs in varying degrees of accuracy are produced by many manufacturers.

This late-19th-century adaptation of a rocker (next page) in the Chippendale style shows that many

manufacturers are not overly concerned with historical accuracy. It reveals an 18th-century character in

its overall design, although the proportions are incorrect, particularly in the legs. The splat resembles

Philadelphia examples, and the carving on the splat and knees is similar to but coarser than 18th-

century prototypes. Although rocking chairs existed in the 18th century (the exact origin is uncertain),

rockers would never have been made into a formal parlor chair with ball and claw feet. The rocker,

produced by C. F. Meislahn & Company in Baltimore, is a product of an imaginary past.
