ABOUT

Introducing the Holdfast Playing Chair, designed specifically for musicians. Inspired by Irish and Swiss traditional design we've been designing & refining this chair for the last two years. After many, many hours of real-world testing from session players and producers here in Nashville it’s clear that this chair actually helps the fatigue and posture challenges professional musicians deal with daily.

All chairs are designed and built by Grant Howard, woodworker. Grant’s design and woodworking sensibility finds inspiration from many creative fonts: Nakashima, Dillard, Schwarz, Sarton, Berry, and Offerman.

Features:
-All mortise & tenon joinery
-Solid red oak, no metal
-Low front stretcher for heel rest
-Deep carve saddle -Rounded and chamfered front edge roll off -Reinforced low backrest -Swiss, three leg stool design making it lighter, stronger and easier to stabilize -Seat height between 17"-18" -Each chair is slightly different as they are all made by hand, on at a time.
