Elegant, architectural lines with beautiful organic patina. The perfect description for this pair of Italian rocking chairs—an inspired fusion of modernist metalwork and old-world leather craftsmanship. With frames sourced directly from Italy, each chair has been finished by master saddlemakers whose primary craft is the creation of traditional horse saddles.
The result is extraordinary: a sculptural steel form wrapped in thick, natural-tanned saddle leather, hand-cut and hand-stitched using techniques normally reserved for equestrian equipment. Every stitch, curve, and contour speaks to meticulous craftsmanship and the tactile luxury of true handmade work.
These rocking chairs bridge the worlds of collectible design and heirloom craftsmanship. Their raw steel frames contrast beautifully with the warm, natural saddle leather, creating furniture that feels both timeless and contemporary.
