The Kenmare Chair’s Whimsical Shapes Showcase Exquisite Craftsmanship

The Kenmare Chair is a minimalist chair created by Maiden Home, a New York City-based studio whose goal is to provide handcrafted luxury for the modern home by combining their deliberate design approach with the traditional furniture craftsmen of North Carolina.

The studio hand-selects each material for its beauty, texture, and durability and is renowned for obtaining their materials from the best textile mills, tanneries, and sustainably managed forests. Each piece is produced to order by North Carolina-based artisan partners who are experts in woodworking, tailoring, and upholstery methods that have been handed down through the years.

Maiden Home partners with highly skilled craftsmen whose expertise includes eight-way hand tied springs along with precision sanding and waxing to preserve a wood’s natural grain. By working with these artisans, the brand is able to operate in a more sustainable manner as all of their products are made locally and with minimal waste, as the artisans only acquire the necessary materials for custom orders.

The Kenmare Chair’s whimsical shapes showcase exquisite craftsmanship in a small silhouette and were designed with an organic ebb and flow. Its modern design has a mixed-material appeal thanks to the hand-carved, solid ash frame.
