Mahogany Chippendale Chair
Jul 29, 2015
Woodworker: Michael Codispoti
Completed over the course of his final year at North Bennet Street School in Boston, Codispoti’s Chippendale chair (17 in. deep by 21 in. wide by 39 in. high) was made from a single 8/4 mahogany board. He tweaked and perfected the back splat design based on motifs derived from a few different antiques. Correct to the Chippendale period, the seat is made of horse hair and cotton batting with fabric stretched over it.
