Crafted by L. & J.G. Stickley in the 1910s, this exceptional Arts & Crafts Mission rocking chair showcases the timeless craftsmanship that defined the American handcrafted furniture movement. Built from tiger oak, the chair features a simple yet robust ladder-back design with exquisite joinery and a newly upholstered Italian leather seat for modern comfort. The graceful runners and solid frame provide a smooth, steady motion that reflects Stickley’s dedication to both beauty and function. Every element—from the visible dowel construction to the honest expression of the wood grain—embodies the authenticity of early 20th-century design. This piece represents both a collectible heirloom and a comfortable accent for any interior grounded in heritage and quality.




Fun Historical Fact: The Stickley brothers were key figures in the American Arts & Crafts movement, promoting craftsmanship over industrial mass production. Their furniture was built using traditional joinery techniques and quarter-sawn oak, often branded with the “Handcraft” shop mark as a symbol of integrity. Gustav, Leopold, and John George Stickley helped shape a design philosophy that still influences modern furniture making today.
