Victorian Rocking Chair Styles

Ornately finished Victorian rocking chairs were among Victorian furniture crafted during the era of England’s Queen Victoria from 1837 to 1901. The dark woods you’ll find in our antique mahogany Victorian rocking chairs are representative of the dark woods used to make this style of furniture. Just as popular during this period was wicker Victorian rocking chairs and wicker chairs. Our vintage and antique Victorian rocking chairs include American Victorian rocking chairs and French Victorian rockers. Some have velvet seat cushions and others have intricately embroidered cushions.

Benjamin Franklin’s Favorite

Some credit Benjamin Franklin with inventing the American rocking chair, although others disagree. All agree that the inventor of the lightning rod and Franklin Stove can be credited with making rocking chairs popular in North America.
