Know before you buy
Mortise and tenon is a traditional woodworking joint known for its exceptional strength and stability. By interlocking the wood pieces, it creates a durable frame that resists wobbling and ensures the chair remains sturdy through years of daily use.
A 2.4 LB density rating is considered high-grade foam, offering significantly better support and longevity than the lower-density foams found in mass-produced furniture. It is designed to retain its shape and firmness over time, preventing the sagging often seen in standard cushions.
Red Oak is known for its prominent, varied grain patterns and warm tones, making it a classic choice for Mission-style furniture. Quarter Sawn White Oak is cut specifically to reveal unique 'ray fleck' patterns in the wood; it is also denser, more stable, and highly resistant to moisture.
Yes, the glider is engineered for a quiet, fluid motion that is ideal for soothing infants or relaxing. The combination of the swivel base and the gliding mechanism provides a gentle, consistent movement without jarring stops.
With a total height of 43 inches and a seat width of 23 inches, this chair has a substantial presence. You should ensure you have enough clearance around the chair to allow for the full range of the gliding motion without hitting nearby walls or furniture.
