Hardy Chair, Oak Stool Bertel Thorvaldsen and the mesmerisingHandmade in the UK The oak Hardy chair is a comfortable modern carver, a true classic in the making, its single steam bent back a true work of craftsmanship. Two chair typologies from the 19th century, Thomas Hardys birth century, inspired its design: firstly the Captains chair originally a low backed wooden armchair and secondly, the Smokers bow, a low back Windsor, often used in smoking rooms, public houses, barbers shops and cottages.
