This Rocker is called a Sack Back Windsor..Rocker..i,d put it at around mid to late 19th century..value...Hi gh....If the price of  their single Sack Back Windsor Rockers is anything bto go by..then you could be looking at the high end of $$$....or more..have done a lot of searching...but can,t find this one...there are some that are just double chairs...and they are into the high 3 figures...
