Olsen’s approach to design often challenged conventional furniture typologies, and this rocking chair reflects that philosophy perfectly, balancing visual delicacy with exceptional comfort and structural sophistication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chair has been newly upholstered in a soft beige fabric that complements the warmth of the teak and the texture of the woven cane backrest. Beneath the seat, an internal zig-zag spring system provides resilient support and a remarkably comfortable sit, creating a gentle suspended feeling uncommon in traditional rocking chairs. The matching head cushion remains attached with its original leather support straps, preserving an important detail of the original design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frame remains in excellent vintage condition, with beautifully preserved teak surfaces and clean joinery throughout. The woven rattan backrest is also well preserved, maintaining its original texture and integrity. The original DUX “Made in Denmark” label is still present, reinforcing the authenticity and collectibility of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA rare and highly expressive example of Scandinavian modernism, combining craftsmanship, comfort, and architectural clarity in a form that feels both relaxed and highly sculptural.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWidth: 26.4” (67 cm)\u003cbr\u003eDepth: 36.2” (92 cm)\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 40.5” (103 cm)\u003cbr\u003eSeat Height: 17.3” (44 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrice: $1750 CAD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorldwide shipping available.
