Windsor chair seats, components and materials suitable for amateur or professional chairmakers. Over the last 25 years I've accumulated a load of components and materials in the workshop which need to go now I've retired. Some items have prices against them, but most are simply open to offers. Please keep visiting this page as I'll be adding to it from time to time when I find stuff I'd forgotten all about. Please phone Ol278 67lO27 or email for more details. Carriage is NOT INCLUDED and most items are COLLECTION ONLY from the Bridgwater, Somerset area.
