About the Item

This Norwegian "Aaslid" Rocking Chair with its striking chess-patterned seat epitomizes the elegance and craftsmanship of mid-century Scandinavian design. Known as the "Aaslid Chair," this iconic piece showcases a signature chess-patterned detail that reflects Aaslid's innovative approach to furniture design. With its smooth rocking motion and meticulously crafted structure, it effortlessly combines form and function. Designed by the renowned Per Aaslid in the 1940s-50s, this chair was produced by Aaslid Møbelfabrikk, located in the village of Fyrde, Norway. Aaslid’s factory, which operated from 1936 until his death in 1969, became celebrated for its finely crafted Scandinavian furniture, with the rocking chair standing out as one of the most popular designs of the era. In good vintage condition, this chair offers both timeless beauty and comfort.
