Gotta love the versatile classic Windsor yew wood chair with its continuous arm, simply comfortable with its sculpted seat and back, sturdy and a great accent piece. 18th century

Wherever the first Windsor chair came from, in the 18th-century American colonies it became known as the "democratic chair" of the independent American nation. The legend about its beginnings has it that King George II, seeking shelter from a storm, arrived at a peasant cottage and was given a multi-spindled chair to sit on. Its comfort and simplicity impressed him so much that he had his own furniture maker copy it for Windsor Castle.

Windsor design has captured and kept its hold on American sentiment and made itself so central an element in all that makes us feel at home.
