Description
Up for auction is a beautifully crafted, Mission-style (Arts and Crafts movement) glider rocker manufactured by the Marles Chair Company. This robust piece heavily draws inspiration from the iconic, historic Morris chair design, showcasing strong vertical spindles beneath the arms, a high slatted backrest, and exceptionally broad, flat armrests. Built onto a stationary base with a heavy-duty, multi-bar mechanical steel glider system, it offers an incredibly smooth and relaxing forward-and-backward swinging motion rather than a traditional tip-rocker feel.
The chair's frame is constructed from high-quality, solid white oak, featuring the gorgeous, prominent grain patterns and flecking characteristic of quarter-sawn wood, finished in a warm, timeless golden-oak stain. It comes complete with its original, loose seat and back cushions upholstered in a durable, thick woven chenille tapestry fabric with a rich, muted botanical motif. An official manufacturer's law tag located beneath the cushion dates this exact piece to a delivery date of November 11, 2006, highlighting it as a beautifully preserved example of the early-2000s Mission Revival aesthetic.
This exceptionally sturdy, heavy-duty chair is in excellent pre-owned condition, showing minor signs of gentle cosmetic use consistent with age. It measures approximately 30 inches wide by 32 inches deep and stands 43 inches tall, making it a commanding yet cozy addition to any living room, den, or nursery. Please review all provided gallery photos to appreciate the excellent craftsmanship, wood condition, and smooth mechanical linkage of this heirloom-quality glider.
