High chairs are nothing unusual, but ones which convert into multi purpose furniture, are a rare find. This one won me over as it is a vintage one.(Ah! is'nt it something i love).
This pretty piece comes with a caned seat and back and a leather strap to support the baby.
and then, it converts into a rocking chair for the baby!
Lovely vintage support system
Beautiful isnt it!..I wish i knew more about this piece, it seems to be unmarked and is on sale for $100 :)...Let me know if you have any information about such pieces.

I tried so hard to put Sara into a high chair or a stroller for that matter..madame doesn't like being chair/strap bound for a second.
ReplyDeleteThat was an awesome find Sudha, I remember seeing something similar in my grandparents home years ago..
ReplyDeleteThis one is a real collector's item... It is always amazing to see creative and multi-purpose furnishings.
