About the Item

Mid-century modern furniture is characterised by its clean lines, gentle curves, and organic shapes. In this piece, the elegant character of this popular design movement meets the timeless allure of a rocker (or rocking chair), soothing and cosy. Functionality and comfort lay at the heart of this mid-century modern rocking chair, portraying the design ethos of the period and giving the traditional rocking chair an updated look. The most striking element of this chair - the armrests - take a geometric form, reflecting the mid-century modern pursuit for uncomplicated looks and straightforwardness through their triangular shape. The dark wood stands out against the lightly-coloured upholstered body of the chair. This piece combines the beauty and innovation of its era’s design movement with the classic qualities of a rocking chair. With its rhythmic motion, it invites contemplation and relaxation. This chair has the power to transform a seat into a safe haven, a place to unwind and reflect. The designer clearly understood the comfortable allure of a rocking chair, choosing to augment the utilitarian aspect of this piece with an upholstered backrest and seat with thick cushions. The soft fabric chosen for the upholstery offers subtle elegance through its quality, while also allowing the shape of the chair to shine through with its honest simplicity. The angularity of this chair blends into its curves, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere in any interior. Rocking armchairs like this one are quintessential examples of how classic aesthetics and thoughtful craftsmanship can result in pieces that transcend their baseline utilitarian purpose and become messengers of tradition and feeling. Providing both visual pleasure and functionality, this chair complements modern interiors with its characteristic charm. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. ‎The chair has been reupholstered recently in a premium fabric. Each of our items can be re-upholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice.
