We saw the factory, start to finish! So exciting. The lumber changed dramatically with each step. Each worker took pride in their part of the manufacturing. Hickory Chair truly creates works of art. Their furniture will be the 'antiques of tomorrow'. I have shown a few of the most interesting steps to me...The man hand carving the intricate legs and feet. Jay holding up the turned leg...made right there, in Hickory! Laura showing us how inlay is done. The girls making the finishes, truly, one-of-a-kind! Hand-done tufting. showing the skirts being made. the beautiful butterfly corners on the flange of my favorite chaise lounge. And, Me with my diploma!
sooo cool! congrats on that diploma :)
