Handmade
Windsor chairs have
been crafted by D.R. Dimes & Company for
almost forty years. Over 100 styles of Windsor
chairs from nearly every region of Colonial early
America have been handmade during
that time by this 18th-century Colonial American furniture shop.
While Douglas Dimes has produced reproduction
furniture, such as tiger
maple furniture, beds, tables, chests and clocks for
over twenty years, he is best known for his handcrafted reproduction Windsor
Chairs residing in over twenty
museums around the country. In many
cases, D.R. Dimes Windsor chairs are copied more often than
the original Windsor chairs after which they were designed.
From Philadelphia to New England, the competitive nature of Windsor chair makers spawned an astounding array of forms. Visit americanwindsorchair.com for a pictorial study so that you may better understand the many types and regional styles of Colonial American Windsor chairs made during the 18th century.
