The embrace, built into the frame.
A rocking massage chair, designed like furniture
Abbaraccio's signature is a full back-and-neck massage chair built to look like nothing but a very good rocking chair.
Abbraccio: Italian for "embrace." Sit down, and you'll feel why.
A rocking massage chair, designed like furniture
Abbaraccio's signature is a full back-and-neck massage chair built to look like nothing but a very good rocking chair.
Abbraccio: Italian for "embrace." Sit down, and you'll feel why.
Real birch, layered and bent into one continuous curve.
Neck, shoulders, and back, not just a vibration motor.
Because it is furniture.
The Signature
The chair you'll actually want in your living room, one that happens to double as a full back and neck massage. Linen-weave upholstery, a laminated birch frame, and a dual mechanism built to move like a hand, not vibrate like a cheap chair. Sit back and it closes around you. The embrace is the whole point, not just the name.

How it works
Nookrest runs two separate massage systems through the same chair: a mechanism built for the neck and shoulders, and a different one built for the back. Neither is a single motor just vibrating a pad.
Both mechanisms live inside the same seatback panel, stacked so the upper set of rollers handles the neck and shoulders while the lower set works the back independently.
A U-shaped mechanical hand kneads and rubs across the neck and shoulders — built to trace the same path a real hand would when working that area, not just press one fixed point.
What the mechanism is built to recreate — not a photo of the chair itself.
The back mechanism is modeled on Thai massage: firm, rhythmic pressure worked along the back, rather than the flat buzz of a vibration pad.

Same rollers, same gears, same motor. Here's the mechanism itself, out in the open.
The roller assembly up close
Four gear-driven rollers on a sliding track, built to knead, tap, and press rather than just buzz.

Knead + beat
Nookrest ships tuned to fixed-point massage, vibration, and five-speed control, keeping the control set simple rather than exposing every individual movement as its own mode. See the full list below.
How it actually reaches you
Nookrest runs the neck/shoulder and back mechanisms described above, plus a separate rubbing motion at the waist and its own vibration layer through the seat, reaching you from multiple points at once.
One chair, two purposes
Sits and rocks like a standard chair with the massage system off entirely.
Upgraded dual movements
Neck/shoulder and back mechanisms run independently or together.
Fixed-point massage
Target one spot instead of running the full track.
Constant-temperature heat
A steady hot compress layered on top of the massage.
Vibration massage
A third layer alongside the two roller mechanisms.
Five-speed adjustment
Dial intensity up or down independently of the mode.
Lightweight, nimble frame
Laminated birch construction, light enough to reposition by hand.
High-quality material selection
Linen-weave upholstery over the laminated birch frame.
Craft
Every Abbraccio frame is laminated birch: thin layers of real wood, glued and bent into one continuous curve. It's the same bentwood method behind some of design history's most iconic chairs, and it holds its curve through years of rocking. We just gave it a reason to also work on your shoulders. The curve that carries the rock is the same one that closes around you the moment you sit down.
