The Penguin Rocking Chair leans towards the American modernists from the 1950s and 1960s. So beautiful that it can be displayed as a work of art in any home, it is open in its construction with a curved back of oak or walnut veneer and has a seat upholstered in fabric or leather against the stringent steel frame. Contrasting and playful, while being well-proportioned and fully formed, the chair, designed by furniture designer Ib Kofod-Larsen in 1953, is a piece of Danish cultural heritage and design history – and maybe more modern than ever before with its beautiful silhouette and sculptural, organic lines and curves.

Richard ★★★★★

The curve of that backrest catches the light so beautifully in my living room that guests keep asking where I found it. It rocks smoothly enough that I've fallen asleep in it twice already, and the open frame makes it look far more expensive than it actually was.

Timothy ★★★★★

It genuinely looks like a sculpture when it’s in the corner of my living room, and the open, curvilinear frame catches the light beautifully. The rocking motion is so smooth and quiet that I’ve already fallen asleep in it twice.
