The Hembury Chair is a dining chair with a shell made from Solidwool — a composite of British Welsh Mountain or Herdwick wool with a recycled wool core — set on hand-turned British ash legs. Each shell uses roughly one whole fleece, and the chair comes in nine natural colourways with a choice of oiled or scorched ash legs.

Honouring considered, functional design, the Hembury redefines a heritage fibre — British wool — in a chair made to be used and handed down. Simple lines, a richly textured natural finish, and timeless appeal. Made in Devon.
