Hand Peeled Cedar Ladderback Arm Chair
The Hand Peeled Cedar Ladderback Arm Chair brings genuine cedar log construction to the dining room — horizontal ladder rungs in the back, cedar log post frame, and an arm that's built from actual timber rather than a wood facsimile. The ladderback is a traditional design for good reason: it provides back support, looks right at a dining table, and holds up under real daily use. In hand-peeled cedar, it becomes something genuinely memorable.
- Style: Ladderback arm dining chair
- Construction: Genuine hand-peeled cedar log frame
- Finish Options: Vintage Whiskey, Honey, Clear
- Seat: Upholstered seat cushion
Built Different
The ladderback design in cedar requires fitting round rungs into round post holes — a traditional joinery technique that creates a strong connection without relying on metal fasteners. The cedar post frame and rungs show natural color variation and grain that makes each chair slightly different. Arms are structural — fitted into the back posts rather than surface-mounted.
Details That Matter
- Ladderback rungs fitted into post holes — traditional joinery
- Upholstered seat cushion — removable for cleaning
- Arms are structural, not decorative
- Pairs with Hand Peeled Cedar Ladderback Side Chair and dining tables
