Unusual Arts & Crafts Mission Oak Antique Vintage Wooden Baby Feeding High Chair

This is a very, very old antique vintage baby feeding high chair, possibly late 1800’s to early 1900’s. I do not know if it is legal or safe to use anymore for anything other than display, and vintage hardware may be missing or non functional, so I am selling it as such for display purposes.This chair is in overall lovely condition with age appropriate wear. The wooden tray is attached to the chair by arms and can swing up and over the back of the chair. This chair is made of oak a...nd has a beautiful, warm patina. The simple decorative cut out designs on the back and arms along with the tacks on the tray edge are common design elements in the Arts & Crafts movement. Although made for feeding infants, these chairs can be used by older children by simply flipping the tray over to the back of the chair, or the arms and tray can be removed simply with a screwdriver.The tray surface may have been altered or repaired at some point, as the finish is different from the rest of the chair, slightly redder, and there are drops of glue or varnish visible on the underside of the tray. There is also a small piece of the tray front trim missing if you look at the tray photos closely.The high chair measures approximately 39 inches tall by 18 inches wide by 21 inches deep.Please examine all photos closely, including with magnification, as they are considered part of my description. I am not always able to point out every little defect or flaw, please assume that there may be some imperfections due to the fact that this is a vintage piece of furniture.
