Oseberg Chair complete

Some shots from the completed Oseberg chair.  Once the new owner makes the seat for it, I'll get some more shots.  These are mostly from a local event called Kingdom Arts & Sciences.  It is always interesting to see what people are up to.





The oil coats mellowed the Maple quite nicely.  My only quibble is the joint on the front panel.  It's too obvious to me, but it's less so in person with better lighting.

  1. I'm curious as to how the seat will weave through the back, and how the back tenons and pegs are set. Do you happen to have any pics of either?

  2. Sorry I didn't catch your question earlier. I'll post pics of the back.

    This particular one won't have a fully woven seat. The holes in the front and sides are to mimic the action of a woven seat. The buyer didn't want to re-weave a seat every time she broke the chair down. There's a plywood seat that she is padding and covering.
