  • Revolving Windsor Chair
    16 Revolving Windsor Chair A few years ago it fell to me to write a story about Thomas Jefferson in a chess match with his slave Jupiter. This venture led to a play on the same subject, as well as research into the physical objects used as metaphorical vehicles for the ideas. In this regard, Jefferson makes it easy for us. One of the more obvious physical items is the revolving Windsor chair used by Jefferson when he was working to draft the Declaration of Independence in 1776. Having seen a picture of the chair in its surviving form and an- other picture of a re-creation of it, I undertook to make a similar one to use on stage. My version differs from the original in the use of a steam-bent arm rail rather than a sawn and carved one, because I could make a bent arm faster than a sawn one. Making this swivel Windsor is in some ways easier than making a normal one, in that the seat is circular rather than a sculpted outline. There are a lot of parts and processes to a Windsor chair, but with the exception of hollowing the seat, you have already seen how to do them all. Windsor chairs, as the name suggests, are of English design. Windsor chair-making in England centered around the town of High Wycombe, but the chairmaking did not begin in town. Out in the woods, workers called chair bodgers felled, split, and turned the beech legs on their springpole lathes, then sold these legs to chairmakers in town.

  • Finishes & Options
    FINISHES & OPTIONS WOOD STAINS, METAL PAINTS, TABLE TOP OPTIONS & DESIGN DETAILS. WOODS, COLORS AND FINISHES... WOODS Wood is an organic material that undeniably adds warmth to any space. Unlike man made materials, wood is a naturally renewable resource that poses no threat to human health during processing. Each species of wood has a unique and naturally occurring pattern that can vary greatly. Due to the complex structure of wood, small knots, piths, pores, rings, etc. may appear and add decorative appeal. Wood grain - Maple Knots Mirrors WOOD COLOR & SPECIES Each species of wood has an innate base color, ranging from white to pinkish, yellow to brown. This impacts the way that stains and paints appear when applied. We primarily work with Beech for our chairs and Ma- ple for table tops. Each of our standard wood stains have been color matched so that any standard color will appear the same in both species. We have the capabilities to source Ash, American Walnut, Oak, etc. and request that for any custom color match, special finish or non-standard species, a reference sample be provided and approved prior to production. STANDARD WOOD STAINS ( “*” implies that finish is also available on Bentwood Collection) Nautral* Parchment White* Black* Aspen Driftwood Kona* Storm Canyon* Beetroot* Dune* Nutmeg* Acorn Cocoa Honey* Almond Due to the limitations of even the most sophisticated printing process, the colors represented here are only as accurate as photography and printing allows. METAL FINISHES... STEEL & ALUMINUM Designed to be strong and durable, metal chairs can be gorgeous, too. We hand-tailor, cope and braze all joints to add even more stability, exceeding strength and durability standards, and customer expectations.

  • Selecting Wood Furniture
    Smart Shopping for Home Furnishings Selecting Wood Furniture Dr. Leona Hawks Home Furnishings & Housing Specialist 1987 HI 12 Shopping for wood furniture? Selecting high-quality wood chairs and benches can be baffling. There are many different styles, materials, and construction techniques from which you can select. To make a good selection, obtain as much information as possible. These questions should help you make a good decision. WHAT’S ON THE MARKET? WHAT’S QUALITY CONSTRUCTION? WHAT’S A QUALITY FINISH? WHAT’S ON THE LABEL? WHAT’S ON THE WARRANTY? WHAT’S ON THE MARKET? Wood is one of the most popular materials used to make chairs and benches because of its rich appearance, durability, and ease of construction. Wood furniture can be divided into solid and veneer (see Figure 12.1, Wood Construction). Most chairs are made of solid wood. You may, however, find chair backs and aprons made out of veneer plywood. Plywood is used for strength and to eliminate warpage, splitting, expansion, and contraction. All woods can be divided into deciduous and coniferous. There is some relationship between the hardness of the wood and the type of tree the wood comes from. In most cases deciduous trees consist of harder wood than coniferous trees, but not always. Deciduous simply refers to all leaf bearing trees such as Figure 12.1. Wood Construction teak, walnut, oak, maple, mahogany, cherry, and birch. Coniferous refers to cone-bearing trees such as pine, fir, redwood, and cedar. Most high- quality wooden furniture is made of deciduous trees. Generally, wood from coniferous trees are used for the less expensive furniture.
