In 1905, Harry Bunnell secured a patent for one of the most recognizable furniture pieces ever. Harry Bunnell's Westport Adirondack chair became popular all around the region. Over a twenty year period, Bunnell experimented with some variations on the original. Bunnell's chairs were made of hemlock, painted in either dark brown or green, and signed by the carpenter himself. Today, Bunnell's original chairs come at a hefty price, about $1,200 each (Bunnell sold them for around $4.00).
I personally own an original Westport chair pictured above. This beautiful piece of furniture, with its supportive back and wide arms may have seen changes in the last 100+ years, but it's still a favorite for porches everywhere.
[Adirondack, Westport, chairs]
weIt is a beautiful chair with the worn paint areas and various colours showing. Lucky you! I love Westport chairs and try to study the minor design changes that occured through its manufacturing history. I make a Westport design and ship them worldwide - everyone should be able to enjoy its comfort and striking visual appeal. www.jardinique.com
