Inspired by contemporary and traditional bodging and bodgers, I've experimented with locally milled and foraged wood, using the natural shapes and curves to make one-off chairs. Perfectly imperfect.
Cherry seat (from a North Kent orchard) and birch legs and spindles (from a South London garden).
Cherry and yew seats with Sweet Chestnut and ash legs and spindles.
Ash seat and back (from a West London garden) with sycamore legs and spindles (from a South London cemetery).
Claire's chair: made at BPCG from her felled Croydon Ash. Go to "Latest Projects", "Milling", and then "An Ash from Croydon" for more.
Black Ash from Ealing and ash spindles/legs.
Detail from a "captured arm" chair - Croydon and Ealing Ash. Using lots of pegs! Inspired by Ben Willis's chairs but going off in a slightly different direction .....
Cherry seats, with lots of burrs (Kent again). Spindles, ash and spalted birch. Forgive the surrounding clutter!
Captured arm Windsor chair. Lots of pegs. Using animal glue so everything more easily taken part.
Black Ash seat and Spalted Sycamore spindles. You can just see to the right part of the first ever chair I made (16 years ago) which set me on my way.
