The Rocker Chair combines classic design elements with traditional craftsmanship, drawing inspiration from 19th-century chair typologies. Its low-backed wooden construction features armrests for enhanced comfort, while the curved rockers provide gentle motion. The design blends Captain's chair and Windsor chair influences, creating a timeless piece with sturdy wooden frame construction.
Old Furniture, a poem by Dorset born Thomas Hardy, is an ode to beauty of furniture being handed down the generations, and David Irwin''s Hardy Rocker is a classic in the making. Two chair typologies from the 19th century, Thomas Hardy''s birth century, inspired its design: firstly the Captain''s chair originally a low-backed wooden armchair and secondly, the Smokers bow, a low back Windsor, often used in smoking rooms, public houses, barbers shops and cottages.
