I see the hands of the generations, that owned each shiny familiar thing

British designer David Irwin’s classic Hardy Chair from Another Country's Hardy Collection is inspired by the poem, Old Furniture, by Dorset-born and renowned poet, Thomas Hardy. 

This chair is also inspired by two chair typologies whose design dates back to the 19th century: Captain’s Chair and Smokers Bow, both defined by their low-back design. This low back inspiration can be seen in the Hardy Chair's design as can the skill and talent in British craftsmanship.

The Hardy Chair is Solid Certified Oiled Ash or Oak and proudly made in Britain. It is perfect for tailored cushioning for both seat and back. For which, our Hardy Armchair comes pre-made with.
