The Snodgrass
Handmade to order at £2,800 Originally commissioned by Dr Snodgrass who had been searching for a comfortable sculpted rocking chair to his 6' 2" frame. The design draws inspiration from the traditional Sam Maloof chairs and is constructed with a pippy oak seat and crest with straight grained oak for the legs, arms and spindles. Design elements include a unique leg profile and a double curve form that is repeated throughout the piece. Two full-scale prototypes were built before work started on the client's actual chair. This preparatory process was used to fine tune the design, tailor the dimensions and hone the rocking motion. Back |
