Continuous Arm Windsor Chair
Each chair is built with a deeply sculptured seat,legs and undercarriage cut in dimensions that make it impossible to come apart. The wedged tenon design of the chair actually tightens itself every time someone sits in the chair.

Sackback Windsor Armchair
Since all of my chairs are handmade, each chair is unique. Some of the marks of the old-time tools that formed the chair may be evident. I think this actually enhances the handcrafted beauty of each piece.

Comb-back Writing Arm Windsor Chair
American Windsor chairs were traditionally painted and this finish is strongly recommended as each is authentically recreated in other respects. Milk paint (non-toxic) is available in a large selection of period colors, and, when given a final finish of linseed or tung oil, is a very durable and interesting finish. Other finishes are available if you are trying to match other furniture.
This comb-back writing arm windsor is available with a pen storage drawer. This chair, like all of my chairs, is beautiful, remarkably comfortable and is built to last for generations.
