Ephemeral Chair
- Unit price
- / per
These chairs were made in the spring, when the new ephemeral flowers pushing through the snow captured my imagination. I am depicting the movement of growth, how a plant bends and curves to reach the sun, an ongoing theme in my work. Each chair is assembled from three nesting forms made from stack-laminated reclaimed construction lumber and hardwood that I salvaged myself, part of my commitment to running an environmentally ethical business. I make chairs to be sat in, their curves discovered as much by the body as by the eye.
Cherry and reclaimed construction lumber. 40 x 24 x 22 in.
Made to order, please allow 6–8 weeks. This piece is an original, hand-carved work based on a design I've created before. While the composition is consistent, each piece is individually made and may vary slightly in color, grain, and detail.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth or feather duster. Avoid direct sunlight and high-humidity environments, which can cause wood to expand, contract, or fade over time. If you have questions about caring for your specific piece, feel free to reach out.

Every piece is wheel-thrown from stoneware and glazed by hand in our studio. This one wears our signature finish, so slight variation in tone and texture is part of it, never a flaw. No two are exactly alike.
Care and the handmade promise
Dishwasher and microwave safe. For pieces you love, a gentle hand wash keeps the glaze looking its best over the years. Avoid sudden temperature changes, like moving straight from freezer to oven.
Yes. Every glaze we use is food safe and lead free, fired to a durable stoneware finish that is safe for daily eating and drinking.
Because each piece is thrown and glazed by hand, small differences in size, tone, and surface are natural. The variation is the signature of something made by a person, not a machine.
Each order is wrapped by hand and packed to travel safely. Made-to-order pieces ship within two to three weeks. You will get tracking as soon as it leaves the studio.
If something arrives damaged, send us a photo within seven days and we will make it right with a replacement or refund. Unused pieces can be returned within 30 days.
