FAQs

A lambing chair is a traditional vernacular seating form featuring a high back and enclosed wings, historically designed for shepherds or farmers to sit near the hearth during the lambing season to keep warm.

These chairs are traditionally constructed from solid native timbers such as oak, elm, or ash, often utilising pegged mortise and tenon joints and fielded panels to build the enclosed frame.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate tool marks, hand-cut joinery, timber shrinkage, and natural oxidisation or patina consistent with centuries of use rather than artificial distress.

This architectural seating piece works well as a standalone focal point in a living room or study, softened with a neutral wool or sheepskin throw to balance the heavy timber construction.

Preserve the timber by keeping the chair away from direct heat sources and sunlight, and periodically feed the dry wood with traditional beeswax rather than modern liquid polishes.
