The Anna Liffey Arm Chair is a study in extraordinary finesse and architectural delicacy, representing the most refined chair design in our collection. Inspired by a chair discovered by Charles Shackleton years ago in his family’s flour mill in Ireland, the collection takes its name from the Anna Liffey mill located on the River Liffey.

The design is characterized by its intricate linear patterns and soulful, hand-finished details:

Features & Craftsmanship

• Historic "Fork Back" Detail: The chair features a distinctive "fork back" design, an interpretation of the original Irish mill chair that provides a unique and storied silhouette.

• Delicate Linear Fretwork: The backrest is defined by a repeating "x" pattern, creating a visual effect of enormous delicacy and grace that resembles a wooden frill.

• Signature Hand-Carved Arms: Each arm transitions into a refined, hand-carved curl, offering a tactile and elegant resting place for the hands.

• Artisanal Bead Ornamentation: The chair features meticulously hand-carved beads on the back supports, marking it as a masterwork of decorative Vermont woodworking.

• Plush Upholstered Seat: A crisp, expertly tailored seat cushion provides a soft, comfortable contrast to the substantial hardwood frame.

• Lustrous Hand-Rubbed Finish: Every surface is hand-finished to a silky-smooth sheen that protects the solid timber and highlights the precision of the carved details.

The Anna Liffey Arm Chair is a durable work of art, designed to bring a sense of history, finesse, and soulful permanence to your dining room or library.
