A woven seat on an oak frame, with an easy curve through the back and a small scroll worked into the brace, the kind of detail that only turns up when a chair is made by a person. The oak is aged to honey so it sits with the raw weave rather than against it.

The walls of the dining room have been left alone for generations. The wallpaper faded, the plaster cracked, the lath exposed.

Constructed by hand in oak with a grass-rope weave, finished in a low-VOC water-based stain, sealed, lacquered and waxed, and lightly aged at the edges. Variations in natural wood grain, color and weave are to be expected.
