Did you have a mini rocking chair when you were a kid? I did. Actually, I still have it. I have a fondness for rocking chairs of all sorts, but children's rockers are just an entire different kind of wonderful, in my opinion. This one came to us very, very beat up as you can see. It is made of woven seagrass which is falling apart. Fortunately we have a Furniture Weaver who is experienced with Seagrass and can put this delightful piece of furniture back together again. And I mean, all the way back together! The rocker is in bad enough shape that together with the owners the decision was made to have the chair completely disassembled and re-woven from the frame up. Below you can see what we are starting with. I will put more pictures up as the project progresses. But in the meantime, how about you tell us about the rocker you had as a child?
