>Peter Atkin is a master craftsman making beautiful hardwood Rocking Chairs in his workshop, at his home, called ‘Button Cottage’! Peter’s rocking chairs are of the highest ‘heirloom quality’ and are no doubt, antiques of the future. What I love the most about his chairs, is that each one has a distinguishing feature – a button has been inlaid somewhere on the chair – how cool is that?
