People have been buying their little children child sized chairs for hundreds of years. Here at the Warren County History Center we have a great collection of 19th and early 20th century children's chairs. Some have seen a lot of use, but we love them regardless.

Children's Chairs at the Warren County History Center

You can just imagine a family sitting on their porch with a pretty little girl rocking demurely in this wicker rocker circa 1890 to 1910. The little Windsor style chair looks like it might have been designed for sitting at table or desk.

This little rocking chair was a nice little Eastlake style child's rocking chair circa 1850 to 1870 but someone replaced what would have been a fancy upholstered seat and back with a 1920's or 30's piece of molded wood. I'd love to get this chair restored, but as it is today it tells a story - probably somebody's grandpa from the 1930's making do!
