Our Amish artisans don’t make disposable furniture — they leave that to the mass-producers who churn out identical copies as cheaply as possible, with little concern for how the piece will stand up to years of use.

The Amish craftsmen who build this beautiful furniture use only quality hardwood sourced from the Northern states. They never use laminated or composite wood in their rocker gliders, because they know that you want the best for your family, and to keep your Mission or Shaker hardwood chair for generations.It’s a safe bet that the Amish men and women who put their talent and energy into manufacturing these chairs have a similar rocker or glider in their own homes!We Still Make Furniture the Old-Fashioned WayModern furniture-making processes tend to emphasize quantity instead of quality.
