Morrison Windsor Chairs are fine and sturdy rendering of an American Classic. Few chairs match the grace and none exceed the comfort of a handmade Windsor. Each Windsor chair I make begins with the harvesting of native woods. I use Maple for the legs and stretchers, for its strength and turning qualities; Ash or Oak for the back and spindles, for their tenacity and bending qualities; and White Pine for the lightness and comfort of a well-carved seat. Every individual piece is a delight to the eye, and the visual whole is greater than the sum of its parts. I prefer a finish of several coats of milk paint, oiled and hand-rubbed to a lustrous and durable finish. I love my work and I am proud to guarantee each chair for life. -William B.
