Synopsis The Book of American Windsor Furniture by : John Kassay
Combining comfort, simplicity and craftsmanship, Windsor chairs have long been prized by collectors. Introduced from England in the early 1700s, the Windsor style took hold in America first as seating for the well-to-do and later as the favourite chair of the general population. Included in the Windsor family are stools, tables, settees, high chairs, cradles and candle stands, but the greatest variety is found in the chairs, which range from comb-back to bow-back to step-down versions. Their makers took advantage of the natural properties of different woods for particular components of the chairs, employing hickory, red oak, or ash for bent parts, maple for turnings and pine for seats.

Synopsis The Development of the American Windsor Chairs by : Carl W. Drepperd
A Windsor chair is a chair built with a solid wooden seat into which the chair-back and legs are round-tenoned, or pushed into drilled holes. This is in contrast to standard chairs, where the back legs and the uprights of the back are continuous. Contained within this book is a fascinating account of the development of the American Windsor chair. Containing a wealth of interesting information on its history, evolution, construction, and popularity, along with a veritable catalogue of authentic photographs and detailed illustrations, this text constitutes a definite treatise on the subject and is not to be missed by those with an interest in Windsor furniture. Many antique texts such as this are increasingly costly and hard to come by, and it is with this in mind that we are proud to republish 'The Development of the American Windsor Chairs' here complete with a new introduction on the history of furniture.
