Midcentury-inspired Oliver Rocker by & Then Design

Oliver

It's a design team we have mentioned before, specifically with its lounge chair and cabinet collection, but the Oliver Rocker by & Then Design has slipped under our radar for some reason.

Not anymore, here it is. Inspired by 1950s Scandinavian design, this midcentury-style gem is available in both beech (pictured above) and oak, with the frame created using traditional woodworking techniques. Once complete, it is finished off with an upholstered cushion with a deep-buttoned pattern.

A timeless piece, that's for sure, it's priced from £860.

eBay watch: Midcentury Danish rocking chair

Danish

I love this design – and the midcentury Danish rocking chair isn't too expensive as I write.

It's a refurbished design, with what looks like a good job on it too. The cushions have new foam adhering to current fire regulations, with new upholstery in a textured green fabric plus a restored solid teak frame. It's even got brand new webbing.

The design is still intact though, with those lovely curves and sloping back. £79.99 is the current bid price.

It's a retro-styled piece of artwork celebrating that particular seat, throwing in more than a splash of colour and a psychedelic twist. It's printed onto heavyweight 180gsm matte paper and sized at 50 x 70cm, so perfect for a standard Ikea frame.

Keep Calm and Rock On card by Nancy & Betty

N&B keep calm

Just when you think the slogan has died a death, some new variation on the ubiquitous 'Keep Calm and Carry On' theme pops up. This time it's courtesy of Nancy & Betty, with their Keep Calm and Rock On card. 

It replaces the well known crown of the original design with an image of an Eames rocker to illustrate the command. Nancy and Betty clearly must have a thing about Eames rockers if you compare it to their rocking new home card we previously featured. These sell in packs of five, each coming with their own envelope, and cost £6 for a set.
