About the Item

Discover the charm and nostalgia of mid-century design with this vintage French rattan children’s rocking chair, dating to the 1950s. Handcrafted with gracefully curved bentwood and tightly bound rattan weaving, this petite rocker exudes warmth, whimsy, and artisan craftsmanship. Its sculptural, airy silhouette is both functional and decorative, making it an ideal heirloom-quality accent for a child’s nursery, bohemian playroom, or as a statement piece in a stylish vignette. The natural patina and honey-toned finish speak to decades of gentle use and timeless appeal. This rare mid-century modern kids’ rocker echoes the iconic design language of Franco Albini and the French Riviera’s relaxed, coastal aesthetic. Its lightweight frame allows for effortless mobility while remaining sturdy and supportive. Condition: Very good vintage condition. Minor signs of wear and age-appropriate patina enhance its character. Structurally sound and ready for use. Dimensions: 15" Wide 24.75" Deep 20.5" Tall 12.5" Tall Seat 17" Tal Arms
