The Ash we use is all sourced from sustainably managed British woodlands. British Ash, known as Fraxinus Excelsior, is a pale wood which often has dark grain patterns through it, known as Olive Ash. Olive Ash occurs in the heartwood of the ash and is prized by chair makers as it brings out the grain in the wood. When it’s found alongside pale sapwood, it can give rise to a dramatic contrast of colour which makes for a truly unique piece.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Ergonomic Comfort: The back and armrest are thoughtfully shaped to provide optimal comfort and support.
  • Steam-Bent Back: The chair back is crafted from a single, continuous piece of steam-bent ash, highlighting the wood’s natural beauty and strength.
  • Contoured Seat: The solid ash seat is carefully shaped and contoured for maximum comfort.
  • Sustainable Sourcing: Crafted from wood sourced locally and responsibly.
  • Versatile Design: As well as a sculptural stand-alone piece, Purity is ideal for use as a dining chair, with arms that conveniently tuck under tabletops.
  • Durable Finish: Features a smooth, vegetal-based, and non-toxic oil finish that is easy to clean.
  • Unique Character: Each Purity Armchair is unique due to the natural variations in wood grain and colour.
  • Award-Winning Design: Recipient of the Design Guild Mark from the Furniture Makers Company, recognising its design excellence.
  • Design Details: Beyond its cylindrical forms, a key design element is the “turner tenon” joint. This precisely engineered joint connects components by narrowing the end of a spindle to create a tenon, showcasing both simplicity and precision.
