Chair making course near Plymouth

with Peter Lanyon

Greenwood chair making at the seaside

Furniture maker Peter Lanyon developed this chair making course for both beginners and intermediate learners to help them bring their greenwood project to life. During the course you will create a chair with a strong sculptural presence that uses the natural properties of greenwood to produce strong, glue-free joints. You will also learn how to accurately split wood with a froe and how to shape it using a draw knife and spoke shaves. To complete the chair, you will weave its seat using all natural materials. The course runs in two locations every year: at Peter’s studio in the UK and at the Cerdeira Home for Creativity in Portugal.
