Full details
The Valerie Objects Rocking Chair is designed for individuals seeking a functional art piece for modern or minimalistic interiors.

Troubleshooting
Chair wobbles unevenly
Ensure the chair is placed on a perfectly flat and level surface. Check that all frame components are securely in place, though significant structural issues are rare due to the design.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a quality leather conditioner as per the product's instructions. Regular conditioning helps maintain the leather's suppleness and prevents cracking.
Frame finish is scratched
For minor scratches, assess if they can be polished out with a very fine metal polish suitable for lacquered surfaces. For deeper scratches, professional restoration may be required.
Colour transfer from frame to clothing
This is uncommon but possible with fresh paint. Ensure the frame is fully cured and dry. If issues persist, a light wipe-down with a very slightly damp cloth may help set the finish.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Striking minimalist aesthetic that enhances modern interiors.
- Durable construction with a leather seat that ages gracefully.
- Serves as both a functional piece of furniture and a work of art.
- Visually lightweight design that doesn't dominate a room.
- Available in bold, appealing colours.
Cons
- May not fit traditional or highly ornate interior design styles.
- The minimalist form might offer less plush comfort than conventional upholstered chairs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Valerie Objects Rocking Chair is designed for immediate use with minimal assembly. It typically arrives fully constructed, with the rocking chair legs already attached to the main frame. Ensure the chair is placed on a level surface before use.
Compatibility: This rocking chair is best suited for modern, minimalist, and Scandinavian interior design styles. Its clean lines and bold colours also pair well with contemporary art and abstract decor. It complements other Muller Van Severen designs for Valerie Objects.
Care Instructions:
- Frame: Wipe the lacquered metal frame with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the finish.
- Leather Seat: For the leather seat, use a conditioner specifically designed for genuine leather to maintain its suppleness and prevent drying. Clean spills immediately with a dry cloth. Over time, the leather will naturally darken and develop a richer appearance. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading.
