Windsor chairs originated in England in the 1720, arrived in America soon thereafter, and became the most classic piece of American furniture — light, strong, relatively easy to make, comfortable and never boring. They were made in Philadelphia, New York, Providence and Boston. Constructed around a shaped wooden seat, they were strong, comfortable and handsome. Windsors became famous at the Constitutional Convention in 1776, and are still prominently on display at Constitution Hall in Philadelphia.
Hand-made in Rappahannock County, VA.
