Chairmaking at the Rare Trades Centre

25 July, 2024
Chairmaking at the Rare Trades Centre

Chairmaking is often considered the Mount Everest of woodworking. Crafting a piece of furniture that is functional, beautiful, and comfortable, while accommodating the human body, can be both challenging and rewarding.

Advance your woodworking skills in multi-day intensive workshops taught by two of the country’s best Windsor chairmakers.

Coming up next

We are also developing a workshop on Australia’s foremost vernacular furniture-making tradition – the Jimmy Possum chair.

This project is a collaboration with bowmaker and woodworker Robert Geddes and the Australian Centre for Goldrush Collections, which houses and cares for a significant collection of Jimmy Possum chairs.
