Rush Seating
Rush is a beautiful finish; it brings a sense of the rustic into your home and complements the country-
influenced design of the ladder back and bobbin back chair. We favour Dutch rush for its consistency
in size, texture and colour, fading over time from rich greens and yellows to the comfortable buff tone
always associated with this ancient method of chair bottoming.
Designs vary a little across Europe, but in the main hold true to a quartered pattern where the
seat is divided diagonally towards the centre. The chairs themselves are either fixed-frame or drop
in seats, both methods produced by ourselves in this most pleasing of materials.
For the eco-conscious, it should be noted there is little or no wastage of rush during the process.
