A little history of the rocking chair
It was in the 18th century that the rocking chair made its appearance in English homes. It bears witness to the new way of life of a society aspiring to more comfort and frivolity in its daily life. The Thonet family-run factory took up the model to reinvent the rocking chair with the technique of steam-bent curved wood. The rocking chair will make a sensation in Europe and will be imported to the United States, where the rocking chair becomes a staple of the American Empire style. Its gentle rocking is perfect for letting yourself drift off into reverie with a good cup of tea!
