The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

A Glastonbury chair is a type of wooden armchair featuring a distinctive X-frame construction, sloping backrest, and shaped armrests, originally inspired by a sixteenth-century chair found at Glastonbury Abbey and popularised during the nineteenth-century Gothic Revival movement.

These chairs are typically crafted from solid oak or walnut and constructed using pegged mortise and tenon joints, often held together with visible wooden pegs or tusk tenons rather than metal fasteners.

Authentic nineteenth-century examples display hand-cut joinery, natural timber patina, carved decorative motifs such as leaves or shields, and pegged joint construction along the X-frame support.

Positioned as a statement accent piece in an entryway, library, or study, a Glastonbury chair pairs effectively with clean modern lines, textured textiles, or dark academia-inspired decorative schemes.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth, keep the timber away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage, and apply a neutral beeswax polish annually to protect the wood finish and joinery.
