FAQs

A Windsor chair is a form of wooden seating where the back legs and back spindles are round-tenoned directly into a solid carved seat, rather than continuing up from the back legs as in standard chair construction.

Traditional English Windsor chairs were typically constructed using a combination of woods chosen for specific strength properties, including elm for the solid carved seat, alongside ash or beech for the bent components, legs, and spindles.

Authentic antique examples display evidence of hand-carved contoured seats, wedged joinery beneath the seat, natural wear to the lower turnings, and subtle irregularities in turned spindles from manual lathe production.

These timber chairs can be paired with modern minimalist dining tables, placed alongside contemporary upholstery as accent seating, or arranged in an entryway to add warm, tactile texture to neutral spaces.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish periodically to maintain moisture in the timber, avoiding direct heat sources and excessive humidity changes.
