The Catawba Modern Black Leather Rocking Chair is modern luxury set in motion — a hand-shaped solid-oak frame in a deep matte black, cradling seat and back cushions in supple black leather. Offered through The Swanky Abode, the curated destination for modern luxury design, and handcrafted by the artisans at Craft Associates®, it was designed by Laura Trenchard as an introduction to her Catawba Collection. A modern rocking chair with real architectural presence.
The rocking chair is constructed from solid hardwood by hand rather than by machine; the oak is shaped by artisans and finished in a commercial-grade matte black. Inspired by the nearby coastal town of Catawba Island — miles of dramatic shoreline in vivid winter whites and dark darks — the deep graining of the oak mimics the rugged, rocky terrain: durable, resilient, and versatile.
Craft Associates® builds every piece in the United States, using the best materials and the best craftsmen in the business and standing 100% behind the result. All pieces are available in Walnut, Maple or Oak, with additional exotic woods available on request.

payment
Orders are paid in full at checkout, which commits your piece into production. Because every piece is made to order, 50% of the order is non-refundable.
returns
Because every piece is made to order, we cannot offer general returns — but if there is a fault with your piece, we will put it right. Beyond that, talk to us. We would rather find a way to help someone who trusted us with a commission than point at a policy. Where a return is agreed, return shipping is paid by the customer.
