ABSTRACT:
A chair capable of rocking and reclining is provided with a contoured seat and an external frame assembly for maintaining the contoured seat above the ground. The external frame assembly has a pair of spaced-apart tubular side members with a continuous outer periphery forming a loop. Each of the tubular side members has a large, ground-contacting arcuate region that extends for approximately 90 degrees and an arm support region that forms an arm rest. The tubular side members are coupled together by cross members that extend between the two. The contoured seat fits between the side members and rests upon the cross members. A user is comfortably positioned in the chair by head, back and seat support areas of the contoured seat. The contoured seat and curvature of the arcuate regions have a relationship such that the axis of curvature of the arcuate regions is slightly rearward of the center of gravity of an occupied chair, thereby allowing the user to comfortably change or maintain the position of the chair over a wide degree of positions.
