Ivory is a proper off-white

Warm rather than clinical. It works beautifully with our cream walls and catches the morning light.

It made the nursery

It finished off the nursery perfectly. Completely silent when rocking, which is everything at 3am.

Five positions and I use all of them

Upright for the telly, halfway for reading, flat out for a Sunday nap. The lever is easy to reach without having to get up.

Beautiful in the bedroom

Sits in the corner of our bedroom and looks like a designer piece. The wooden runners are lovely and smooth.

Khaki is a beautiful shade

Muted and earthy rather than army green. It has lifted the whole living room.

Weathered really well

It has been outside since spring, through rain and sun, and still looks as good as the day it arrived.

Reinventing the contemporary rocking chair

My Rocking Chair was born from a simple conviction: that a well-made rocking chair — comfortable, beautiful, and built to last — should be within reach of every home. Our founder grew up with a rocking chair in the family home. That chair outlasted sofas, sideboards, and three house moves. It was never replaced because it never needed to be. We built this brand to bring that feeling to yours.

Why Choose a Rocking Chair?

A rocking chair is much more than just another piece of furniture. Combining timeless style with everyday comfort, it has become a popular addition to modern interiors, creating a peaceful and inviting space where you can truly unwind.

The Benefits of a Rocking Chair

A well-designed rocking chair offers excellent support for your back while encouraging your body to relax. Its smooth, gentle rocking motion helps relieve tension, reduce stress, and promote an overall sense of wellbeing.

The continuous movement also encourages subtle shifts in posture, helping to improve blood circulation, particularly in the legs. This provides a lighter, more comfortable sitting experience, even during extended periods of use.

Relaxation and Better Sleep

Inspired by the soothing motion of a cradle, a rocking chair creates a naturally calming environment. Whether you're reading a book, enjoying a quiet moment, meditating, or simply taking a break after a busy day, its gentle movement promotes deep relaxation.

Rocking chairs are also widely appreciated for their soothing effect before bedtime. Some research suggests that rhythmic rocking may support better sleep quality and even contribute to improved memory and cognitive function, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to create a more restful home.

Indoor or Outdoor Rocking Chair?

Before choosing a rocking chair, consider where it will be used most often. An indoor rocking chair is designed to enhance comfort and style, making it a perfect addition to a living room, bedroom, reading nook or conservatory. Upholstered fabrics such as velvet, boucle and chenille create a warm, inviting atmosphere while complementing a wide range of interior styles.

If you are looking for an outdoor rocking chair, durability becomes the priority. Models designed for patios, gardens or poolside areas are made from weather-resistant materials such as powder-coated metal, synthetic rattan, woven rope or quick-drying textilene. Removable, water-resistant cushions also make maintenance easier while ensuring long-lasting comfort. Choosing the right materials allows you to enjoy your rocking chair throughout the seasons without compromising on style or performance.

Which Rocking Chair Is Best for Nursing?

A rocking chair is a popular choice for parents who want a calm and comfortable place to feed or soothe their baby. The gentle rocking motion creates a relaxing environment that can help make feeding and quiet moments more comfortable for both parent and child.

For nursing, many people prefer a rocking chair with a supportive backrest, well-positioned armrests and a generously padded seat to encourage a comfortable sitting position during longer sessions. Soft upholstery, including chenille or corduroy velvet, provides additional comfort while offering practical, easy-care fabrics for everyday family life.

Some rocking chairs are also designed with smooth, quiet rocking mechanisms, making them particularly suitable for a nursery or bedroom where a peaceful atmosphere is important. To help you find the right model, detailed information about dimensions, materials and features is available on each product page.
