A wide, carved plank seat cossets the sitter in this chair. The gently carved crest echoes the illusory lines of the seat and apron, and reverse-tapered legs are cut with three facets to accentuate the play of light. The overall effect is a solid and versatile chair that outlines space with minimal visual effect, an exercise in optical refinement. The Dining Chair has a wide solid cherry back splat that is canted, shaped and polished to highlight its unique growth-ring pattern, emblematic of the passage of time and the trees from which this harmonious furniture is crafted.
