Rocking chair Restoration

Welcome to today's video where you saw the renovation of a very popular rocking chair.
The idea of rocking a simple chair originated at the end of the 18th century in England, where they simply attached so-called swings to an ordinary chair.
During the 18th and 19th centuries, rocking chairs became very popular in America.
At that time, a new design was developed that allowed swinging using curved legs and arched springs.
This innovation enabled smooth movement and increased the comfort of rocking chairs.
At the end of the 19th century, the rocking chair of Michael Thonet became famous, who founded factories for furniture made of bent wood in Koryčany and Bystřice pod Hostýnem, which enabled their availability to a wider public.
The design of rocking chairs continued to evolve, different materials such as wood, metal, plastic were used and new shapes and styles appeared to suit different tastes and needs. Today, rocking chairs are a popular part of many homes and public spaces. In some countries, you can also find a rocking chair in a geriatric clinic, and this is no coincidence. Elderly people suffering from Alzheimer's disease or other types of disabilities appreciate the calming but stimulating effects of regular rocking movement. Overall, we can say that the history of rocking chairs is long, rich and has become an integral part of our homes.

What a beautifully designed chair! Excellent reconstruction! I love the gentle curves and the color of stain and the fabric you used. It looks warm and inviting!

Greetings from St. Petersburg! Radek, you upholstered the rocking chair better than at the factory. It is a fact. It would also be nice to have a footrest, girls really like it when they have somewhere to put their feet. I wish you a cozy, mysterious and wonderful Christmas!

Yes, my wife Veronika said exactly the same thing. Happy holidays my friend.

I really enjoy your restorations of everything. It helps my stress to watch something made beautiful again. They are still shooting missiles at us in Jerusalem, Israel. I pity the Ukraine also. War is unnerving and so destructive.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Good day! Thank you for your comment. I am glad that my restoration brings you joy and helps you with stress. At the same time, I regret the situation you describe. Missiles and conflicts in the world like the one in Jerusalem and Ukraine are not only unnerving but also destructive. I hope the situation will calm down soon and we will get peace and stability. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I wish you all the best.

This is what I like to see. Straight to the renovation without all the "show biz", theatrics and slow motion rubbish that so many of the youtube renovators do. They also attempt humour which never works. Good job.

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thanks for your comment but unfortunately youtube is big business these days and many youtubers do what they think is right to get a lot of followers. Over the years I've been on KZbin, I've learned that it's impossible to please everyone. And that's why I'm very happy and at the same time pleased that you like the videos I make.
