The rocking chair is back!

02/21/2022

A piece of furniture with a pleasantly old-fashioned charm, the rocking chair is making a comeback in our interiors! In our imagination we often associate the rocking chair with country houses. It is a piece of furniture most often fashioned from bentwood. The rocking chair's unique base gives it a retro feel. The rocking chair is ideal to decorate a veranda or a spacious living room. Very comfortable, it is also an ideal piece of furniture for a reading corner! Let yourself be rocked by these few inspirations...
