When you think “wooden rocking chair” images of grey haired grannies or (equally boring) new mothers are called to mind, which is why this design is so extraordinary. Seated in the Reel Rocker, you can take on three different positions. Sit forward on the front stop to devour a novel, rock your cares away, or put your feet up to admire the stars as though you were in a lounger. Holes, knots and markings in the wood give the chair tactile character; fittings are zinc plated for use inside and out. Brilliant.
