Frank's Rocking
Frank's Rocking was designed in the late 1950's by the Norwegian interior architect and woodworker, Frank Reenskaug. Reenskaug lived in a small Norweigan town called Drammen, where he created most of his works. He is praised among many design enthusiasts, for his talent and creation of beautiful designs, where the rocking chair remains his utmost famous work.

Frank Reenskaug (1919-2001)
Frank Reenskaugh graduated from the Norwegian SHKS school in 1952. After this, his career as a furniture designer officially kicked off, leading to the creation of many designs.


Rocking Chair
In 1958, the danish furniture factory, N.A. Jørgensens Møbel Fabrik, later renamed Bramin, launched Reenskaug's rocking chair, calling it No. 182. Bramin was at that time one of Denmark's biggest furniture manufacturers. After its launch, the rocking chair became an instant and huge export success and is today said, to be the most sold rocking chair in Scandinavia.
A Chair With Legacy
In the 1970's, production of the rocking chair stopped. But the reputation and admiration of the chair never ended. Over the last decades till now, the rocking chair has been a famous vintage item that many strive to get their hands on it.
At Greenholt, we wish to carry on the legacy of Reenskaug's Rocking by relaunching it to the furniture market. We strive our best to follow the production spirit of the 50's and 60's and hope you will agree in doing so.
