AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
OVERVIEW
A bold and expressive rocking chair by Bretz from the 1980s, upholstered in rich blue velvet. This piece captures the playful confidence of late-20th-century German design: generous, sculptural, and unapologetically comfortable. The rocking function adds a calming, almost meditative quality, turning the chair into a true relaxation piece rather than just seating. Ideal as a standout feature in a living room, studio, boutique interior or design-led lounge.
