A Bentwood Rocking Chair with Patchwork Upholstery in the Style of Luigi Crassevig - This single bentwood rocking chair is designed in the classic Thonet Model No. 1 style, featuring elaborate steam-bent scrolls that form the runners, armrests, and decorative side supports. The frame is constructed from beech wood with a medium-to-dark stained finish and is assembled with visible screws. The chair features a tall, rounded-rectilinear backrest and a contoured seat, both of which are padded and upholstered in brown leatherette or vinyl. The upholstery is finished with a distinctive decorative patchwork or spiderweb geometric stitching pattern throughout. A small, illegible yellow rectangular label is affixed to the rear cross-rail. This specific combination of bentwood frame and patchwork upholstery is widely attributed to Luigi Crassevig, dating to approximately 1970.
