About the Item

During the 18th century, a profound design movement took place in Wales. It was led by peasant-carpenters who, simply in an effort to create a practical seating option, produced one of the most elegant spindle back chairs of that time. It is known as the 'Welsh Stick Chair' and it's makers are thought to be the forefathers of the Shakers. We appreciate the paired down, meditative lines so much we decided to make our own variation of the form. Complete with shaved spindles and a hand shaped seat. The chair begins with a stack of carefully selected lumber; chosen for its clarity and straightness of grain. The boards are milled by machine, then shaped by hand to form exacting joinery. Working over the pieces with well tuned hand tools gives the wood a low sheen unattainable with sandpaper. Finished with a natural oil and wax blend. Shown in walnut, also available in white oak.
