Modern Ming Chair #1

Originally designed for a client as part of a design brief that demanded adherence to traditional forms while matching an existing dining table, this formal Ming Dynasty inspired dining chair lends itself to numerous interpretations. Comparing this with the prototype (Modern Ming Chair), you will notice that the splat is less dramatic in side view. The client opted for a more subdued visual impact. The location of the splat relative to the seat keeps the sitter in a formal position without effort. Though formal, these are very comfortable dining chairs.

Shown is an armchair made of Ontario black walnut (Juglans nigra), stained and lacquered. Other finishes are also available. Sizes are customizable; shown at 19” x 46¾” x 20 ½”. Available in side and arm versions in a variety of domestic woods, fabrics, and colours.
