This Rocker Cradle from Scott Morrison is a classic revisited. Morrison, who lives in Montana in a house on a mountain, specializes in creating unique wood furnishings. This chair updates a 1700s Windsor style nanny rocker by using spindles that connect the shapes of the base and the rail creating a harmoniously fluid sculptural effect. The rocker is made using a variety of hand tools and is done with an attention to detail that takes into account the unique personality of the wood. Each piece is also hand rubbed with a mixture of tung oil and resin for a protected finish. The chair in English Walnut sells for $10,500.

There is nothing like hand crafted pieces using time honoured traditional techniques. It's an art that only a few posses these days and anyone fortunate enough to own such a beautiful thing will treasure it forever and pass it down through the generations.
Gorgeous.
