The bentwood frame creates a continuous, light profile, with arched armrests that accompany the movement of the runners, expressing a refined synthesis of technique and form. The seat and backrest are made of woven textile ribbon, likely a cotton or mixed-fiber ribbon, typical of Scandinavian production of the period. The fabric is in excellent condition and enhances the graphic texture of the weave. Yngve Ekström was a central figure of Swedish modernism: his work is grounded in the idea of ​​democratic, functional, and accessible furniture, capable of combining comfort, quality craftsmanship, and industrial production. This rocking chair fully reflects his philosophy, with organic lines, structural balance, and a simple yet welcoming aesthetic.
