A true epitome of Danish modern furniture design, the rocking chair was one of Wegner’s first chairs put into production, combining functionality with a poetic and playful edge. Expertly crafted from oak with a stunning natural paper yarn cord seat, the chair is available in warming natural oak, a more contemporary lacquered black finish or distinctive oiled walnut. Boasting a tall spindled backrest and high armrests, the inviting seat is both supportive and comfortable, perfect for creating a calming seat space of relaxation in a lounge or bedroom.

With his love of natural materials and his deep understanding of the need for furniture to be functional as well as beautiful, Hans J. Wegner (1914-2007) made mid-century Danish design popular on an international scale. He began his career as a cabinetmaker in 1931 and subsequently entered the Copenhagen School of Arts & Crafts. After receiving his architectural degree in 1938, he worked as a designer in Arne Jacobsen and Erik Muller's architectural office before establishing his own office in 1943.
