Spindle back settee

Handcarved three-person settee made from locally sourced green ash. The settee is produced in the traditional manner starting with selecting and felling an ash tree from woodlands in Kent and splitting components from the log by hand while the timber remains green. With carved spindles and a textured seat, the settee displays tool marks in abundance. Finished in black milk paint and linseed oil.
