It looks like excellent craftsmanship. Are the backs straight up & down or is there a slight angle from the seat up? Are they comfortable?

The back is straight up and down but the chair is still surprisingly comfortable. FLW designed the originals with very high straight backs to create a “space within a space” which made for a more intimate dining environment. The idea was that the tall straight backs formed a visual second set of walls within the room bringing the family closer together when they were at the dinner table.

That looks like excellent work from the photos. Impressive. Even the cushion looks well made. I just love looking at other people’s work. Thanks for posting.
