My traditional handmade stick chairs are individually made in the style of early Welsh stick chairs, constructed from locally sourced hardwoods and using traditional tools and techniques. Each of my stick chairs is individual and unique.
This chair is easily recognised as a very traditional 'farmhouse' chair, robust and hardwearing, it will stand the test of time. Made with Oak for the octagonal legs and stretchers, Elm for the arm, crest and finely shaped seat and Ash for the sticks, the contrasting wedged joints showing the skill of the craftsman. An unusual feature is the cigar shaped lower sticks and the stretchers. As with all my chairs attention to detail ensures a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing addition to any home, giving pleasure through the generations.
I make this chair to order with a lead time of 4 - 5 weeks.
Dimensions: seat H18" arm H27" overall H50" - all sizes are approx. to ½”
As my chairs are all individually handcrafted I would recommend that you collect your chair in person to ensure that it is comfortable and suits your personal requirements. In the event that this is not possible a courier can be arranged at their then charges.

My interest in early Celtic country chairs developed over the years during my time spent living and working in Ireland, England and Wales; I have now settled back in England to continue my craft from my workshop in Shropshire. My hope is that my handcrafted chairs will bring as much pleasure to you, the new owner, as I had in the making of them.
