Fermob Sixties Rocking Chair
Eleven hours of hand-braiding go into each seat before it ever rocks — retro form, patient craft.
Frédéric Sofia set the Sixties cocoon on curved rockers, its aluminum frame wrapped by hand with some 735 feet of polyethylene outdoor thread. The shallow rocker arc sits flat at rest and moves smoothly under way, and the whole chair leaves Fermob's Thoissey factory with a cataphoresis-treated, UV-stable powder coat.

Common Questions
Is the rocking motion stable?
Yes — the rocker arc is shallow, so the chair sits flat when stationary, starts gently, and does not tip forward at full recline. The aluminum build keeps it light enough to move one-handed.
Can it live on an open patio?
Yes. The frame's UV-stable powder coat and the polyethylene weave both handle sun, rain, and salt air; rinse with mild soapy water and store it under cover through winter freezes.
