Know before you buy
The seat features an ergonomic scooped design that contours to the body, providing more comfort than a flat wooden surface. While it lacks upholstery, the shape is specifically engineered to distribute weight evenly for extended seating.
A floor model has been displayed in a showroom, meaning it may show minor signs of wear or light surface imperfections from handling. These chairs are sold as-is and offer a chance to own handcrafted furniture at a unique value.
Mortise and tenon is a traditional woodworking technique where one piece of wood is inserted into a hole in another, creating a mechanical lock that is significantly stronger than screw-based assembly. This method prevents the chair from wobbling over time and ensures it can withstand daily use for decades.
Yes, natural cherry wood is photosensitive and will darken and develop a rich, reddish-brown patina as it is exposed to light. This is a natural characteristic of the wood and is generally considered a desirable trait that adds character to the piece.
The protective lacquer finish is highly durable and resistant to moisture and spills, making it ideal for a dining environment. You can maintain it simply by wiping it down with a soft, damp cloth; avoid harsh chemical cleaners that could strip the protective layer.
The backrest is gently curved to follow the natural alignment of the spine, offering targeted lumbar support. With an overall height of 39 inches, it is designed to provide adequate back coverage for most average-to-tall adults.
