The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Lancashire spindleback chairs are a traditional style of 18th and 19th-century English regional country seating, defined by multiple tiers of turned wooden spindles set into the backrest frame and fitted with woven rush seats.

These chairs were traditionally constructed from native British hardwoods, predominantly oak, ash, or elm, combined with hand-woven rush or sedge grass to form the seat base.

Authentic regional pieces display slight variations in hand-turned spindles, traditional mortise and tenon joinery with wooden pegs, hand-woven rush seating, and smooth wear on lower front stretchers from foot placement.

Spindleback chairs can be paired with a scrubbed pine or oak farmhouse table to accentuate a classic aesthetic, or placed around a simple modern timber table to contrast rich historical texture against contemporary lines.

Maintain rush seats by applying a light water mist once or twice a year to keep the natural fibres pliable, and clean the surrounding timber components with a high-quality natural wax polish.
