Blackwater Library Chair

I call this the library chair because it feels right when holding a book. And it looks good in a home library or study or beside a desk. Upright, good lumbar back support, nice arms to support a book. An all wood-chair, it is deceptively comfortable. No, you won't fall asleep in this chair, but you don't want to when reading. Most of the time, anyway.
The chair looks good in cherry as shown here or in black walnut. Also a lighter tiger maple spindle can be ordered. This chair won the prestigious NICHE Award for design in 2000.
The chair features curved arms and a crest rail that is cut in two, rejoined, then shaped into a moderate curve . The spindles have the elongated S shape I use on many of my pieces for ergonomic support.
