Know before you buy
While the live edge retains the natural character and shape of the wood, Amish artisans carefully sand and finish the slats to ensure they are smooth to the touch and comfortable for seating.
Steaming the hickory makes the wood pliable enough to shape into the chair's signature curves while also hardening the fibers. This process creates a robust, insect-resistant frame that is exceptionally sturdy and built for long-term use.
No. Because this rocker is handcrafted from natural hickory twigs and live edge wood, every piece features unique grain patterns, knots, and twig placements. You are receiving a one-of-a-kind item where the wood's natural characteristics dictate the final appearance.
This rocker is primarily designed for indoor use, such as in a sunroom, nursery, or living area. If placed on a porch, it should be in a covered, protected area away from direct exposure to rain and harsh elements to preserve the wood finish.
The natural varnish highlights the raw, light-toned beauty of the hickory wood. Choosing a stain allows you to customize the color to match your existing furniture or decor while still allowing the natural grain and unique textures of the hickory to show through.
