Hard Maple Rocking Chair – Italian Leather

$13,800.00

Designed for Beauty. Built to Last a Lifetime.

This handcrafted rocking chair brings together the enduring charm of Arts & Crafts design with the strength and elegance of figured hard maple. Unlike most rockers made from soft maple, this one-of-a-kind piece is crafted from figured hard maple—also known as sugar maple—the same trees tapped for maple syrup. This dense, resilient wood is approximately 25% harder than other maples, making it more dent-resistant and ideal for everyday use.

Each rocker is uniquely its own, with sequentially matched maple boards highlighting the wood’s natural figure and character.

Every element is meticulously built with intention and care:

Sustainably sourced North American hardwoods

Traditional joinery including through mortise-and-tenon and bent laminated rockers

Nine-spring, eight-way hand-tied seat foundation for long-term comfort and support

Oversized down-filled back cushion for luxurious softness

Upholstered in your choice of premium fabrics or leathers

Named The Millie in honor of the maker’s mother, this rocking chair celebrates family tradition and storytelling. It’s not just furniture—it’s a future heirloom designed to create and carry memories for generations.
