EASTWARD COLLECTION:
the classic enables the modern
In the early days at Thos. Moser, the initial shaping of seat blanks into their finished forms was truly an exercise in rough sculpture, accomplished with a chain saw and a strong back. Today, machine routers cut seats to their rough shape with greater safety, then an experienced cabinetmaker uses a handheld grinding tool to contour the seat into its finished form.
Shaping the crisp, straight lines of the Eastward seats requires a steady hand and exacting skill. One slip and the vibrating grinding tool will scallop the edge, sending the piece to the scrap pile. Each wedged chair leg must be delicately sanded smooth without grinding away too much of the seat. The result is an object of subtle beauty and remarkable comfort that will surely stand the test of time. |
