Amish Heritage Colonial Thumb Back Windsor Side Chair - SKU#3710

Windsor Chairs represent a high point in the landscape of furniture design & construction. The original English Windsor Chair has traveled extensively throughout the centuries, first coming to America in about 1726. Since then, several stylistic and structural adaptations have evolved including Arrow-Back, Bow-Back, Comb-Back, Fan-Back, Paddle-Back, Sack-Back, Wheat-Back, and many other Windsor Chair varieties.The original Thumb-Back Windsor chair developed circa 1820, and is often referred to as a "Pierced Slat-Back Windsor".

This Amish Heritage Thumb-Back Windsor Side Chair is typical of the American Windsor chairs of the early nineteenth century. At this time, Americans were fascinated by things oriental, thus the popularity of the "bamboo-style" turnings. Though it appears very delicate, this light and extremely graceful chair is in fact very sturdy. By using 100% premium American hardwood components combined with modern glues and a range of quality finishes (see thumbnails above) it actually surpasses the beauty and durability of the original thumb-back chair.

Characterized by bamboo-style turnings, a comfortable dished seat, and legs that are driven deeply into the seat for maximum stability and durability. Comfortable back support is ensured by the use of 8 ergonomically arched back spindles.

This Delicate-Looking Amish Heritage Colonial Thumb-Back Windsor Side Chair Is An Ideal Study In Graceful Yet Sturdy Furniture Design!

Windsor chairs of the Colonial and Federal periods were built to last by caring men who thoroughly understood their tools, materials and craft. Today, our dedicated Mennonite & Amish furniture makers undergo a long apprenticeship to develop keen eyes and skilled hands, and these expert craftsmen enjoy building Your legacy quality seating with the same unhurried care - providing you with exceptional furniture and outstanding value.
