A Thos. Moser icon.
The Child’s Continuous Arm Chair is created using flitch-cut cherry or walnut. The process involves quartering and steaming sections of logs, then slicing them into tenth-inch thick strips. The knife cuts produce no sawdust – and thus no waste – and the board’s full strength is preserved. When the pieces are shaped and glued back together, the arm is comprised of eleven different layers, while retaining the strength and appearance of solid wood.
Anatomy of the Arm Chair
The Legs
The legs represent the chair’s final distinction. Tom Moser replaced traditional stretchers with curved braces called a ship’s knees. Supportive and strong, the ship’s knee is created from 1/32″ laminated wood that is bent to shape, and then set into a slot that is cut and shaped into the leg, so it is flush with the surface.
The Arm
The Continuous Arm is our signature chair is created using flitch-cut cherry or walnut. The process involves quartering and steaming sections of logs, then slicing them into tenth-inch thick strips. The knife cuts produce no sawdust – and thus no waste – and the board’s full strength is preserved.
The Seat & Spindles
The Continuous Arm Chair includes a highlight (raised section) that runs around the back of the chair, where the ash spindles join the seat. The spindles extend all the way through the seat and are wedged top and bottom, making them not only aesthetically pleasing but easy to repair, should the need ever arise. The spindles are so finely tuned, you can pluck them the way you would with a string on a harp and they should resonate at the same frequency.
