Continuous Arm Rocking Chair

"Americans have a taste for…rocking-chairs. A flippant critic might suggest that they select rocking-chairs so that, even when they are sitting down, they need not be sitting still." ~ Gilbert K. Chesterton

For over two-hundred years this American design has brought comfort to many.  Using time-tested techniques and known factors of the human body, they continue to be one of the most comfortable chairs ever drawn from a tree.  Brought to life by hand, these Windsor chairs use construction techniques similar to a suspension bridge.  Using tension, the properties of the material, and tight joinery the chairs have a high strength to weight ratio, which insures that they will never lose a stretcher or snap a spindle unless put through extremes not normally found in a home environment.  Like any King Solomon piece they are built to be an heirloom product that is meant to last for generations to come.
