Comb-Back Windsor Chair
If you are short of chairs in your home, then you may perhaps want to check out the captivating display pieces created by Tom Emerson, a Santa Fe-based furniture maker offering a large display devoted entirely to his steel-scrap chairs.
Among them include the Comb-Back Windsor Chair which typifies the his captivating display of pieces by Hosea Hayden, a 19th century furniture maker who frequently made “tripods”—three legged stools and small chairs, some of them folding.
Many of the most beautiful chairs are not attributed to particular craftspeople and more to general eras or purposes. Particularly apt, as Americans confront the results of rabid consumerism and look toward belt-tightening in the coming years, is the chair table. A stout chair with a broad, almost ornamental back when placed against the wall, it folds down to create a table when pulled into the center of a room.
