Chair Chat no. 8 with Rudy and Klaus: Rock Paper Turd

Today on Chat Chat number 8 they talk specifically about a chair they got their hands on. While the specific details of the past owners are not known, we know that this is a 19th century primitive Welsh ash low back style chair. Rudy remarks on the small size of the chair being 29 cm. They talk about how the chair is the size for children but that it could be a creepie chair meant for decoration or something else.

Key Takeaways:

• We know little about the chair, other than the seller calls it a 19th century primitive Welsh ash low back chair.
• The chair is only 29 cm high, but has a wide seat.
• The chair has two original battens and a third that was likely added to hold its modified seat.

“This week, we discuss a vernacular low chair where function has exceeded form.”
