When I designed this for a show in 2000, I realized the larger arch of the back rest allowed me to design the Grande sized chairs I make, These chairs are 1 1/2" wider than my Original chairs

This is from my "Table Scap" line of work that I use high figure slabs that are not useable for table tops. I buy logs from a specialty saw mill in Pennsylvania cut, sequenced and dried. The first and last slabes of the tree have too mcuh sap wood to be used for dining table tops but are excellent use here. A figured log has the highest figure closest to the bark. Hence, this is the most vibrant part of the log. Notice when you walk across it how the grain has an opelessece that dances.
