Model #7 Aunt Annie’s Rocker by the Troutman Chair Company.

About the Model #7 Aunt Annie’s Rocker:

Versatile in many ways. This rocker is specially built for a “Rocker” – the ultimate chair for a professional, “picker” or porch musician.

Its armless styling allows for effortless, unrestricted playing comfort and mobility. Also originally known as a “Nursery Rocker” due to its extensive use in churches, hospital nurseries, and school classrooms.

Students diagnosed with Autism and ADHD have a need to rock. Working in a rocker helps these students stay on task and calm.

Proudly made in the USA, this solid wood rocker is mainly built from Red Oak and Hickory.

It was originally known as a “Nursery rocker” due to its extensive use in churches, schools, and hospital nurseries.

This rocker features mortise and tenon construction, shaker techniques, interlocking joinery and swelled joint construction.

In addition, it is available unfinished or finished in Harvest Oak, or a clear natural finish.

Troutman uses water-based urethanes designed for outdoor use, however, we recommend keeping products undercover for longevity.

Minor assembly is required as the rocker runners will need to be attached. Please use the instructions and nails included with the runners in order to avoid injury.

Manufacturer Info

Since 1924

Troutman Chair Co., established in 1924, has been family-owned since its inception. The Brown family of Troutman, North Carolina is responsible for starting and maintaining the quality manufacturing process of solid wood furniture for almost three-quarters of a century.

In 1999, Champ and Jean Land purchased Troutman Chair Co. continuing the tradition of handcrafted furniture in the same manner established back in 1924 – with farmhouse, shaker-style chairs, rockers, stools, and tables. A true family-run business, the Land’s son Cam is now a driving creative force.

A Tradition of Excellence

Since 1999 the Land family has made few changes to the Troutman Chair Co. business and products. The goal of purchasing a company already manufacturing the best product in its category and enjoying a near-perfect reputation was to merely enhance the best and offer it to the rest of the country: Troutman products were historically sold only in the Southeast. Troutman now ships anywhere in the continental United States and as far as Germany. Minor adjustments were made to the products over time – the Lands added a deluxe finish line with stain and painted finishes. They moved to stainless steel nails and arm braces to avoid rusting. Since taking over, the Lands have expanded the product catalog and continue to look for new ways to bring quality made wood products into customers’ homes, on front porches, resorts, and in unique places like airports.

In this time when a good deal of furniture manufacturing is being done overseas with cheap materials and plastic, the Land family feels a sense of pride in knowing that they are overseeing the continuation of a true Southern tradition – hand-making rockers the time-honored, quality way of old master craftsman.
