Cherry Lowback Chair-My take on a Sam Maloof inspired lowback chair. Made of cherry with maple plugs. Alot of handshaping!!!! I have made some changes from the Maloof style, that I prefer. It features the carved seat, handshaped arms and headrest. This is our most popular chair style.
See other chairs that we’ve made:
