Designed in 1944, Wegner's rocker with the sensually curved arms was inspired by traditional Windsor and Shaker furniture, fused with Wegner’s poetic lines.
Rocking chairs are often seen as a place of nurturing, as the gentle rocking motion soothes infants and sends them off to sleep. They don't just soothe infants. They soothe everyone.
Why?
Rocking chairs are so comfortable because, when a user sits in one without rocking, the chair automatically rocks backward until the sitter's center of gravity is found, providing ergonomic comfort at an un-stressed position and angle.
The gentle rocking motion has been shown to provide a faster onset of sleep as it mimics a parent rocking a child to sleep.
