<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 4293756, member: 37"]It is, of course, a cradle. Size not given but likely for a real bably. Cradles often get listed as for dolls since they do not meet current regulations for a baby's bed. Looks like a refinished hardwood of some type (maple, birch?). Blocks added later to keep it from rocking. Mid 19th century is about right for this. Last old cradle I had (not quite as nice as this), had to end up selling for less than $20.00. Absolutely no interest at a higher price.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
