This chair is sturdy, comfortable, and simple to build using common woodworking tools. Whether you're creating seating for your home, campsite, SCA events, medieval reenactment, Viking living history, or LARP, this project combines historical inspiration with practical craftsmanship.

I've also included the decorative knotwork artwork used on my own chair, ready for laser engraving or carving if you'd like to add an extra level of detail to your finished piece.
