About the Item
This very graceful French bentwood rocking cradle with canopy is from the Art Nouveau period (1890-1910) and is done in the style of the German-Austrian designer Michael Thonet who developed this type of furniture in order to make it appealing, functional, efficient and economical.
"The development of a novel technique for bending solid wood, (too hot steam), first by boiling of the glue, and then through the humidifying water vapor, generated from an autoclave, then to give it the desired curvature in the forms of metal and make it hard again with the drying in ovens. The latter procedure was then patented in 1842."
Furniture of this type was especially popular during the Art Nouveau period with its flowing lines.
