Saw an ad for a Wegner Sawbuck Rocking Chair today and wasn't aware that he made one. Did a little digging and found this site that has one as an example.

But that's it. I can't find another anywhere or even a knock-off. The seller said it isn't marked (at least not that he can see). Any thoughts? Authentic? Reproduction? Knock-off? Any catalogs to support?
Thanks!

One of these is for sale in my area so I naturally came here for info, but unfortunately the links to the old threads are dead. LAMA sold this one and listed as Wegner for Cal Hansen c. 1951. A dealer on 1stDibs sold one and listed it as by Frank Reenskaug. Does anyone know the actual designer or maker?
@cdsilva Tagging you since you responded to the OP and seemed to have the answer. Thanks.
Hi Mark. I can’t recall what I wrote last week, let alone 2016, but I don’t believe there are any legit CH28 rocking chairs. If you Google Wegner Sawbuck rocking chair, you’ll find other examples. Detail comparisons with legit CH28 chair, including differing backrest construction and wood type, help confirm the rocking chair is not CH-made.
