Spindle, Spool, Bobbin Chairs
Spindle, spool, bobbin chairs. They can be called all three and were originally conceived in the early 18th century. Many designers are putting a contemporary spin on this old favorite. They are great in both dark and light hues and have the staying power of a classic.
Old Hickory Chair from Horchow
Blending softly colored upholstery with a dark-finished frame, this eco-friendly spindle chair makes a dramatic statement in any room. Frame made of hardwood with English black-walnut finish. Cotton upholstery. Comes in many colors.
Sculptural like edge and back detailing, coupled with supreme comfort make this Spindle Chair and Ottoman an excellent choice for versatile placement. Crafted from solid kiln dried birch with cushion wrapped foam core seat and back cushions, this Spindle Chair is both durable and stunning. Chair and Ottoman are available in a variety of distinctive finishes.
Spindle Chair from William Sonoma
Rich in character and comfort, this chair is a focal point as well as a destination for reading and relaxing. Turned details and a hand-rubbed finish lend it the air of a vintage piece, while linen-blend upholstery and resilient cushions add supportive, sink-in plushness. Handcrafted of kiln-dried rubberwood. Deep-black finish is hand applied and lightly distressed at the corners.
The Spool chair with its timeless classic features provides the perfect framework to showcase traditional or modern upholstery choices. Its exposed back frame offers a look as beautiful from behind as it is from the front. Topped with comfortable plush cushions, it will be the chair of choice in your home. The ornate turned feet are set on stylish casters allowing the it to be easily moved.
A spiced-up version of the centuries-old bobbin frame has all the details that define the style: Hardwood frame, spindled arms and legs, ebony finish and deep, comfortable cushions. The ikat pattern, though, is unexpected and fresh. This is a very affordable version of a classic.
