By changing the size and shape of certain parts, any chair, especially rocking chairs, can be adjusted to provide an individualized fit. Fitting for the Walden Rocker is best achieved at the Artist Market. The seats are hand-woven using strips of the inner bark of the hickory tree. This material is harvested in the spring when the sap is flowing and the bark separates easily from the tree. The chair is finished with multiple coats of resin oil and hand rubbed.
Fanny polish is the only thing recommended for the hickory bark seat.
