Everyone seems to prefer the look of the Ladderback chairs, so I have tried to find a way of keeping the traditional look but improve the comfort. My remit has always been to try and achieve a chair that is comfortable enough to sit on all evening, there is nothing worse than getting cramps at a dinner party!! I want my guests to feel reluctant to leave the table once the meal has finished, so that all continue to chat and play silly games.
So with this chair I have made the seat deeper and inverted the bottom slat and not bent the second one so there is much more lumber support. So far the response has been really positive and I now have orders for another two, so all very positive.
I have also improved the seat material, I now use real Rush, which is not only beautiful to look at with it's great mottled colours that changes with age but also smells wonderful too!!
