Mourning Wood Studios is a no-bullshit, non-elitist, real art, wooden rocking chair company based just outside Austin Texas. We offer functional art in original designs at reasonable prices for those looking for something a little off center than the norm.
..
We do not dabble in exotic woods or artisan construction methods. We cheat and use electricity, but make no mistake - everything is as handmade as it gets. We do not use CNC machines or computerized templates to produce our chairs. We use powertools, hand tools, sandpaper and our eyes to see what we are doing and we do it because it is fun. We make all chairs out of wood, no screws or nails go into the construction. All metal is purely decortive.
We are currently offering two designs. First, is the Bone Throne, a solid pine rocker. Yeah, I said pine. Hand carved out of the same stuff they built your house with. If its strong enough to hold your roof, then its good enough to rest your ass on right?
Bone Throne $400
Our second chair for the new year, is the Shocker Rocker.
A bit morbid? Sure is, and fun as hell! This bad boy is comfortable and functional and actually serves as a reading lamp while you sit in it.! Little Billy not doing his homework? Well, strap his ass in the Shocker Rocker, flip the switch and watch as he absorbs knowledge from his well-illuminated text book...OK, we do not condone strapping anyone into the chair. [DISCLAIMER The Shocker Rocker is NOT intended to be used for the purpose of restraint OR electrocution it is purly decortive and WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANYTHING STUPID YOU CHOOSE DO WITH THIS CHAIR.]
Shocker Rocker $400
