Know before you buy
The 'Overtall' design features a 42-inch height, which provides extra back support compared to standard-height rocking chairs. This makes it a comfortable choice for taller individuals or those who prefer a more substantial headrest.
Hickory is an exceptionally dense and strong hardwood, making it ideal for furniture construction. Because the branches are hand-bent and joined using traditional Amish techniques, the frame is rigid, durable, and built to withstand years of regular use.
The seat is ergonomically contoured to follow the natural curve of the body, which helps distribute weight evenly. While it lacks upholstery, the slatted design is specifically shaped to provide support and comfort during extended periods of rocking.
To keep the wood in good condition, dust the chair regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or furniture polishes that contain silicone, as these can build up over time and dull the natural finish of the hickory.
Yes, this rocker is suitable for covered outdoor areas like porches or sunrooms. However, because it is made of natural wood, it should be protected from direct rain, snow, and intense, prolonged sunlight to prevent the wood from weathering or cracking.
