Red Oak Lounge Chair And Ottoman
The Oak Lounge Chair and Ottoman are part of a living room collection. The back on this chair is made with a solid piece of Red Oak, giving it a serious slab effect. The top of the seat is 16 inches high; the back, at its highest, is 30 inches. The cushion is 25 inches deep, leaving room for a pillow. The dense cushion on this chair is 6 inches thick. That, combined with Herculite webbing instead of a slab base, makes it a very comfortable chair. The ottoman has the same quality construction and Herculite webbing and can serve as additional seating.

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I design and make furniture that I like, and would want in my home. Most of the furniture that I make starts with wood, as I love the look and feel of serious wood, which is why most of my pieces have a clear finish on them.
Two major influences are the prairie style of architecture that I grew up with in my parents home, but also the Bauhaus architecture of my alma mater in Central Minnesota. I spent too many hours sitting in Marcel Breuer chairs, in a Marcel Breuer-designed library, pondering the design rather than writing that Brittish Lit. paper.
Central Minnesota is a good place for one who loves modern; it is also a very good place for someone who loves wood. I have a handful of sawyers within a 45-minute drive from whom I buy my wood--mostly Red Oak, White Oak, Walnut, and Cherry.
