Inspired by the gentle curves of the Wye Marsh in southern Ontario, made with a solid wood frame and full-grain leather sling, Wye rocker challenges to the traditional stiff chair perched on a curved rocking base.

Composed with iconic loop frames and a flowing sling seat, the Wye rocker feels like it's moving even when sitting still, inviting you to experience that movement; a chair designed to tell its own story. It is also simple and elegant, something to be cherished for a lifetime rather than discarded after only a season, emphasizing the simple joy of ownership.
