old, meet new {Windsor Chair}

{via}

 

In the beginning (late 17th – early 18th century), there was the Windsor chair.  Simple in construction, it consisted of doweled backs and legs.  The  solid wood seat was usually shaped into a saddle shape for comfort.

The design concept has remained the same. But, some designers are updating this classic with their own touches.
