Hello all, Any ideas on this rocking chair? I’ve found one other online but the seller didn’t have any specific information about designer or maker. Purchased in Southern California at a second hand shop. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
@denmarkwest Your photo (assuming you included one) is not displaying. Try re-sizing it to under 2 MB.
Have you contacted the Sam Maloof foundation? Or looked through their archives? Sam was located in southern California and trained several wood craftsmen, perhaps this is one of their creations. There are certain 'lyrical' lines in everything except the front leg spindles and the front-facing boards on the back and the seat front. The angularity of the seat design and straight-backed feel chair is reminiscent of Malook rockers.

@denmarkwest A little late on this ID but just happened to see this marked example online and remembered trying to ID it years ago. I've never heard of Lampros of Los Angeles and couldn't find anything about them online. A few examples of this chair is all that comes up on Google.
