Catalog description
True Kennedy Rocking Chair, part number PR001, is a discontinued product from the 2007–2011 catalog. It was last listed at $449.99, up from a low of $369.98.
The True Kennedy Rocking Chair is crafted from beautiful oak and natural rattan and makes a strong and rugged chair. One element contributing to this rocker's comfort is the steam bent curved backrest that sweeps inward to create a firm back support. The woven seat and backrest made with Malaysian rattan also contributes to the comfort of this rocker. The thin incredibly strong rattan stalks are dried cut and tightly woven to create a durable flexibility. Both the comfort and craftsmanship of this rocker will last for generations.
The True Kennedy Rocking Chair has a lot of history behind it. John F. Kennedy suffered from lingering back problems from a war injury and to relieve tension from his lower back this rocker was recommended by his doctor. During his presidency President Kennedy had been photographed several times in the Oval Office discussing world affairs while sitting in a rocker that is the model for this one. Now you too can add a piece of history to your home with an exact replica of the True Kennedy Rocking Chair.
