1. Kingsley Bate Southampton Rocker

Is there anything more relaxing than sitting on the porch in a rocker on a perfect summer day and watching the world go by? There is a reason that our number one pick is a rocker and that is because this style of chair has always been popular for centuries. It is hard to improve on the design and the peaceful motion of an old-fashioned rocking chair.

Kingsley Bate offers a wicker version that is hand-woven using larger-than-normal fibers to give this seat plenty of heft and durability. The fiber’s natural variance in tones and gray finish on the legs makes the Southampton Rocker a gorgeous piece that weathers over time to reveal the patina of teak. This rocker is available in your choice of wicker color and cushion upholstery fabric.
