ABOUT PRODUCTID 15900
This mid-century rocking billy goat from the 1960s, crafted in Germany, exemplifies the playful yet refined spirit of Scandinavian and German modernist children’s furniture. The main structure is rendered in a light, honey-toned wood with a matte or satin finish, highlighting its natural grain and subtle warmth. Robust legs and smoothly contoured rockers create a fluid silhouette, while the stylised geometric head—with its pronounced curved horn and softly defined black eye—anchors the zoomorphic identity of the piece. The seat, upholstered in padded, natural beige leather or heavy fabric, features broad quilted channels for added comfort and a visual cadence. The overall lines are minimalist and harmonious, accentuated by gentle curves and child-friendly proportions. The goat is preserved in very good condition, displaying only minor, age-appropriate surface marks without affecting structural integrity or stability.
In this object, the spirit of the 1960s childhood is captured in a language of direct and joyful design: zoomorphic form becomes an invitation to imaginative play, while the honest application of materials and careful craftsmanship reflect an era when children’s furniture was both practical and whimsical. The geometric abstraction of the goat's outline, its dynamic curves, and the matte wood surface combine to suggest movement and narrative—a gentle sway that conjures memories of storytelling and closeness to nature. Traces of gentle patina and use do not diminish but rather emphasize its authenticity, presenting a story of longevity and enduring charm.
The rocking billy goat can serve as an accent piece in a mid-century-inspired children’s room or as an imaginative feature in eclectic, collector’s living spaces
