A Federal Maple Hoop Skirt Rocker, MA, 1790

Rocking chairs are also an important part of seating furniture, and this chair is called a hoop skirt rocker as its arms are set back.  Note, it relies on earlier design motifs (i.e. turned finials and stretcher, etc.).  Also note the arm supports and their extensions for additional strength.
