FAQs

Windsor chairs originated in England during the early 18th century, developing from regional stick-back vernacular seating into a distinct form defined by spindles tenoned directly into a solid wooden seat.

Traditional construction typically utilised a combination of timbers, using dense hardwoods like elm or fruitwood for the carved saddle seat, ash or oak for the bent parts and legs, and birch or beech for the spindles.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-turned components with minor irregularities, wedge-tenon joinery where the legs pierce the seat, tool marks from adzes on the saddle seats, and age-related patina including wear and shrinkage cracks.

These chairs provide textural contrast when paired with contemporary dining tables, or function as standalone statement seating in kitchens, hallways, and studies to ground modern minimalist schemes.

Preserve the timber by avoiding direct sunlight and extreme humidity fluctuations, cleaning only with a soft dry cloth, and occasionally applying traditional beeswax to nourish the historic finish.
