SHARE
Windsor chairs are thought to have originated in England in the first half of the 18th century. Much admired by members of Japan’s Folkcraft Movement such as Soetsu Yanagi, Shoji Hamada, Keisuke Serizawa, and Sanshiro Ikeda, these all-wooden chairs became representative of Western furniture. Unprecedented in scope, this exhibition introduces the beauty of Western chairs with outstanding examples of Windsor chairs in Japan as well as several other kinds of chairs from Europe and America.
