About the Item
A graceful example of Danish modern design, this rocking chair by Niels Eilersen combines sculptural elegance with everyday comfort. Crafted in Denmark during the 1960s, the chair showcases Eilersen’s expertise in woodworking and his commitment to timeless, functional forms.
The frame, executed in solid black lacquered beech, is finely proportioned with smooth, flowing lines that emphasize both strength and lightness. Subtle curves in the arms and runners create a gentle, balanced motion, while the seat and backrest provide inviting comfort.
Eilersen, known for his family’s longstanding tradition in fine furniture making, brought a distinctive Danish sensibility to the rocking chair—a design that feels equally at home in modern and traditional interiors. With its restrained detailing and enduring craftsmanship, this piece reflects the best of Scandinavian design heritage.
A refined and collectible rocking chair—ideal for design enthusiasts and anyone seeking an elegant, functional accent piece with lasting character
