New Gloucester Rocker

Inspired by the aesthetic appeal of the Salem rocker that originated in New England circa 1840, Tom started with an adapted form of the deep, comfortable rocker seat, added his own spindle and arm design to create his first prototype, and kept refining from there. The result is a thoughtful integration of ash and cherry or walnut with simple lines, and meticulous use of traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery.
