While the Windsor chair<\/a> will always be associated with colonial times and country style furniture<\/a>, the truth is, Windsor chairs have the \u201cit factor.\u201d A chair that is still beloved and sought after since 1710 has got something special going on, which brings us to the third and final part of our Windsor Chair series where we explore the question, What contributes to the undying appeal of the Windsor chair<\/a>?<\/p>\n

THEY\u2019RE LIGHTWEIGHT<\/h2>\n

When they were used in the garden, the Windsor was easy to move around. Spindles attached to a solid seat also offered a see through back that that didn\u2019t block garden views. Their combination of \u00a0lightness and sturdiness continues to make them a popular choice for restaurants and homes.<\/p>\n

WINDSOR CHAIRS OFFER A CLASSIC STYLE<\/h2>\n

There\u2019s an old fashioned appeal to the Windsor chair<\/a> that we all keep coming back for. From the founding fathers to present day homes, Windsor charm is a knockout for country style or farmhouse style collections. They\u2019ve developed over the years, with several variations being added to the design, but the character of the Windsor chair remains the same.<\/p>\n

THEIR COMFORT ENDURES<\/h2>\n

Windsor chairs<\/a> manage to combine elegance with strength and durability while providing a vintage feel that takes us back in time. But it all started with the comfort which was the main element that impressed King George enough to pursue the Windsor\u2019s development. The splayed legs add stability, the scooped seats offer a cradle, the spindles support the angled back and the entire Windsor structure creates a chair you can count on.<\/p>\n
