Anatomy of the Continuous Arm Rocker

The Seat & Spindles

The Continuous Arm Rocker includes a highlight (raised section) that runs around the chair’s back, where the ash spindles join the seat. The spindles extend all the way through the seat and are wedged top and bottom, making them not only aesthetically pleasing but easy to repair, should the need ever arise. The spindles are so finely tuned, you can pluck them the way you would with a string on a harp, and they should resonate at the same frequency.

The Arm

The continuous arm in our signature chair is created using flitch-cut cherry or walnut. The process involves quartering and steaming sections of logs, then slicing them into tenth-inch thick strips. The shape of the continuous arm – oval at the top, round in the middle, and U-shaped where it meets the arms – requires intensive handwork. Each arm is trimmed, then filed by hand using a course file called a horse rasp, then a finer rasp, and then finished with a hand sander. Even the holes are drilled by eye.

The Legs

The legs represent the rocker’s final distinction. Most Windsor chairs have stretchers that connect the legs to one another. Over time, stretchers get creaky, gather dust and interfere with feet seeking space for a more comfortable position. Recognizing another opportunity, we have replaced the stretchers with a curved brace called a ship’s knee. Supportive and strong, the ship’s knee is created from 1/32” laminated ash that is bent to shape, and then set into a slot that is cut and shaped into the leg, so it is flush with the surface

It’s All In the Details

Altered from our original Continuous Arm Chair, the Continuous Arm Rocker is crafted in sustainably harvested North American hardwood, provides the perfect amount of roll while providing ample stability.
