ABOUT THE STYLE: Stick chairs are folk furniture made by amateur woodworkers for their own use and are built using local materials with simple joints. The first known image of a stick chair comes from Wales. The “Laws of Hywel Dda,” a Welsh book of laws from the late 12th or middle 13th century, shows a judge sitting on a chair that clearly has a plank seat with legs and uprights mortised into the seat.
Centuries later, the similar Windsor chair form emerged in England in the early part of the 18th century. Stick chairs share a lot in common with Windsor chairs, especially in the way their parts are joined together. But there are important differences.
