The Glastonbury chair was made for John Arthur Thorne, a monk and the last treasurer of Glastonbury Abbey, some time before 1539.

The chair is made from solid oak, one of the oldest and most durable woods used in the Middle Ages. It is a joined chair, which is constructed according to the art of the joyner—all the joints are hand filled without the use of any nails, screws, or glue. Allowances are made for the stresses of seasonal dimensional changes.

Carving is applied with chisel and wooden mallet. It is finished with hand rubbed poly-urethane.

24"W x 26"D x 34"H.
