Windsor Armchair

The antique Windsor chair comes with a lot of character and charm that makes it one of the most coveted pieces of rustic furniture. It is no surprise that antique Windsor chairs enjoy popularity because of their simple elegance and timeless appeal. Early examples appeared in the late 16th century but grew in popularity during the 18th and 19th centuries using native woods such as oak, fruitwoods, elm, and the rarest of all, yew wood. There are many antique Windsor chairs that closely resemble one another in design but differ in size since many were made to order. A Windsor chair's assembly traditionally did not involve glue or nails. Following the completion of the pieces, the joints were allowed to "season together," which means the wood dried and expanded, allowing permanent bonds to form between them. The legs of this classic English chair are mortised from below and the spindles on the backrest are fitted into a thick, one-piece, wooden seat. The back legs of this chair, however, do not connect to the back of the chair. In contrast to continuous pieces of wood, the round-tenoned spindles and legs of Windsor chairs are pushed into holes. 

Bidsquare online auction has the perfect antique Windsor chair, whether you want a sack-back or a comb-back. In our collection, you will find pieces that are ideally suited for adding a hint of rustic elegance to a dining room. If you are looking for an elegant seating option for your living room, you may consider a straight-back Windsor chair with arms and ornate Fleur-de-Lys motifs. The collection also includes sleek Danish modern-style chairs inspired by mid-century modern. Discover specimen-grade Windsor chairs that are ideal for creating a beautiful focal point to accentuate any room, in addition to gently-used and affordable models for Buyers on a budget. The quality of the ash, elm, or beech wood used in the production of the Antique Windsor armchair will ensure that the pieces last a lifetime.

As a result of its dynamic tension — a harmony of historical relevance and modern interpretation, an eternal solemnity and exuberant vitality - the Windsor design has captivated American sentiment and been a cornerstone of American culture. Bidsquare has a great collection of antique and vintage Windsor chairs you will love keeping and passing on forever.
