$7,700.00 incl GST (with your selection of leather colour)
“The Cascade Rocking chair holds a special place in my heart. It was a very satisfying commission and is still the most complicated chair I have ever designed; also the most successful. The process was more like climbing Everest than going for a stroll in the hills, but with a similar sense of achievement. The balance is perfect: it’s as happy to sit quietly as it is to rock. I am not aware of another chair anywhere that performs quite like it.” – Evan Dunstone.

The Cascade is a high-performance ergonomic “working” rocker. It’s the ultimate “tool for sitting”. The Cascade is a must for anyone who spends long periods of time in a chair. Suitable for the office, home or chambers. The Cascade is beautifully balanced. The short rocking action promotes active sitting. Natural body movement constantly changes the position of the chair, easing joints, muscles and ligaments. This is a high performance chair in every sense of the word. The Cascade is a signature Dunstone Design piece and we reserve our very best timber for making them.
The Cascade was based on the Academic chair and the original was made for Melbourne-based Professor of Philosophy Aubrey Townsend. Professor Townsend desired a chair that kept him moving while he sat reading for work or listening to opera. The late Swedish designer/maker Rasmus Malbert worked with Evan on the Cascade over a seven week period in 2006.
