So excited to find this community after getting my first rocking chair. A generous neighbor gave it to me thru my local Buy Nothing Group. She mentioned having got it at a flea market in VA several years ago and being told it was a teak mid-century rocket. I was planning to clean and oil it, but I quickly realized I have no idea what I’m doing so it might be best to figure out what I have first. height: 43.5” Depth of the legs: 34.5” Depth of seat: 17.25” Width:21” Any help with figure out who made this or what the best way to maintain this would be greatly appreciated. I couldn't find any marks on the back, seat or legs to indicate who might have made it or what kind of wood it is. I love it regardless of its monetary value. But I don’t want to mess it up. thanks in advance![/QUOTE]
