The choice of a coating process does not depend simply on chance or taste. It must be conditioned by the shape of the seat by its proportions. The raw material, either herbaceous or rye straw, must match the style of the chair. It should match the tone of the wood.

The wooden structure of the chair suffers from the wear and tear of time :
Broken bar due to misuse, disassembly, wormwood, etc. As unpleasant as they are inevitable, these "surprises" have led me to understand over time how much this small piece of furniture, so familiar and yet too often neglected, deserves attention.
Once these first operations have been carried out, the wood can finally be cleaned, gummed, lacquered and waxed.
Regaining the grain, restoring warmth to a fruit tree....
It is up to the craftsman to ensure this part of cabinet making.
These practices are part of my activities as a craftsman as well as the know-how I teach.
