Reproduction Shaker style ladder back side chair

We have 2 of these chairs.  They have been cut down, but the wood is in good shape.  They need re-gluing, finish restored, and new seats.  You can put many types of seat in them .  The Shaker tape is most common.  Great class project for seat weaving.  We do not do re-gluing in class, but we will do that work for you. 

                                                                                                                                                                                          

Sheraton Fancy Side Chair

Delightful little occasional chair.  This chair needs re-glueing.  The structure has some cracks.  Also it is missing a wood band that covers the edge of the rush around the seat  The band is not functional, but helps with the proportions of the piece.  Originally this chair a had natural cat tail rush seat.  Pre twisted rush would look good also.

Bent wood Arm Chair

Originally this classic chair had a hand woven seat.  We can re cane it or make a very nice upholstered seat frame that is removable and looks like a cushion.  The finish needs some work.  It is bubbled.  This is not an easy project for students as there are lots of holes. This chair is very beautiful, light and comfortable definitely worth saving

                                                                                                                                                                                          

This is one of a set of four walnut ballroom chairs.  They are very delicate and pretty.  We have not restored these chairs.yet.  We thought that they are so interesting that we should try to find a home for them.  These are light use chairs,  After restoration they can be used with care.  Please call to discuss restoration. We have several options depending on your taste and needs
