You have to admit that rocking chairs have been around for a long time because they tend to be both comfortable and very relaxing. The staid image of a rocking chair is too dull for most modern tastes, however. The Keinu Rocker gives a somewhat futuristic twist to the classic design. The Finnish rocker, designed by Eero Aarnio, is made of leather and chrome-plated steel. It features an ergonomic seat and has a stopper halfway up the front blade in case you become a touch overenthusiastic about rocking. The only drawback is that it is only offered in yellow, while we think that white would look a bit more elegant. Price: $4,000.
