parts for a mahogany rocking chairMahogany is durable in the weather.  It is often used as trim on boats, so we use it for rockers that may see duty on porches.  The seat has been redesigned to confine changes in dimension due to changes in humidity to narrow boards.  (See Wood and Moisture.)  Some other minor adaptations to outdoor rigors are made to the final sculpting of porch rockers.  But the contours and therefore the seating comfort are "Weeks Rocker".  While I adapted the Weeks Rocker design and chose mahogany to answer the call for a porch rocker, many of these chairs live indoors.  We can sculpt and finish the mahogany rocking chairs for indoor or outdoor use, but we do not change the construction of the seat.

Mahogany is surprisingly light when newly worked.  Surprising because of the connotation of "mahogany color."  But the wood darkens and becomes richer in a few months.  The figure of mahogany is subtle.  Occasional dark mineral streaks, iridescence, and small, tight knots occur as character marks.  (Click for more information about Mahogany.)

All of the mahogany in our furniture is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council and is supplied to us by Earth Source Forest Products.

I repeat the guarantee here at the mahogany rocking chairs page and many times on this site because I believe all it says and because it says all.   Comfort, Beauty, and Construction are addressed in detail on other pages of this site.
