Learning to walk in style, the 18thC way-
I came across this photograph today of a beautiful little baby-walker, made around 1715. It works exactly as the modern plastic version does and they aren't particularly heavy either. This is a very fine version by a skilled cabinet-maker, and would have been for a baby born to wealthy parents. They are quite rare as pieces of furniture and turn up only occasionally. They are usually purchased by collectors of 18thC curiosities.
