Whether it’s for the nursery or in your lounging spaces, a modern leather rocking chair adds both functional and aesthetic value to the room. With their slimmer forms and premium materials, they’re nice to look at and sit on. More importantly, they’re not as bulky as their traditional counterparts, making them ideal for compact interiors. Here are some of our design team’s recommendations for rocking chairs in leather that are so inviting and comfortable that you wouldn’t want to stand up anytime soon.

Designer Advice:
A nice option for your reading nook in the bedroom or the living room. This is more of a recliner than a rocking chair, so we recommend adding a round footstool in front. Prop some floor lamp, a round stool for an end table, and a round area rug, and you’ve got yourself a nice spot to relax.
