This Walnut rocking chair was another labour of love! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to being a satisfying build the result is quite stunning. The richness of the deep brown grain contrasted with its lighter shades, especially in the headrest, is so beautiful that it is hard to describe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a medium sized rocker though you really only notice the size difference when it sits beside the large sized Cherry rocker. This style of rocking chair commands a much bigger presence than the much smaller standard country-style rocking chairs that sits in most homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other than the size and the use of Walnut there were very few changes between this rocker and the Cherry one. One of the differences is that the arms are sculpted a bit thinner plus one arm has some brass inlay, filling a small knot hole on one side and a larger spot on the opposite side of it. The thinner arm gives a bit of a lighter appearance to the chair and the addition of the brass turned both of these structure issues into beautiful, and very unique, accents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
